2 down, now watching the third …
Only seen Revenge of the Sith once and that was in the cinema. It’s been good watching them in turn as I’m seeing more of the setups come together. Mind you, it’s George Lucas here, so the setups are in plain sight and easy to decipher. But I like Star Wars anyway.
Going to have to read the Rogue Squadron books again. They’re by Michael Stackpole and Aaron Allston, who both set up excellent, believable characters. And any story should be about the characters. If the authors get too impressed by the technology, a la Star Trek, it can bog down the story and make it boring.
Currently reading a book by Michael Stackpole set in the Mechwarrior universe. It’s not bad, I’m enjoying it so far. It’s definitely going better than the last book I read, War of Honor by David Weber. 920 pages in that, with over 700 dedicated to interstellar politics (yawn) and not enough on the actual war bit.
Anyway, back to the film … and my dinner which will be burning in 7 minutes.
