Has anyone read the Republic Commando series of books? I'm within 75 pages of finishing the third one, but it is said that there is to be a fourth one, which ties into order 66 and teh rise of the Empire.

I'm within 75 pages of finishing the third one, but it is said that there is to be a fourth one, which ties into order 66 and teh rise of the Empire. Yes, I've read them. I really liked the second and third editions because of Kal Skirata. In the Legacy of the Force series - some of the characters appear in Sacrifice, which is written by Karen Traviss, the same author of the Reupblic Commando series. It was a neat tie in. I looked the other day for a release date on Odds, which is the next book in the series, but didn't find it...

Cona Chris, I'm sorry to say that Odds is just a short story. She wrote it to kind of fill in the gap between Triple Zero and True Colors. The last one in teh series should be coming out July or August this year.
As for the Legacy of the Force, my dad has read all of them so far, minus Sacrifice (my dad hates hardcover prints of books, don't know why), and loved them. He gave them all to me, but I haven't had a chance to sit down and read them yet.

Have to read it now - I thought that Odds at the end of True Colors was an excerpt from a new book. Your dad probably hates hardcover books because they are more expensive - I usually wait for paperbacks myself. Thanks!

I absolutely love those books! Hard Contact and Triple Zero rock.
But, you guys are talking like there's a third book (True Colors?). Is there one?

Yes, True Colors is the third book in the series, and I just got around to finsihing it (stupid homework). There were a few loose ends, but they'll be tied up in the next one. Don't want to reveal everything at once. I have speculation about the next one. If it is to be based around Order 66 and the great Jedi Purge, I don't think Omega would kill any Jedi, because of how close they are to them, but as for every other clone involved with Omega, they could go either way.

It looks like the next book in the series is almost here. Order 66 is coming out on the 16, same day as the Force Unleashed video game.
