Hard Merchandise Chapters 8–10: Boba Fett's Tech Riddle

We're finally back after an impromptu break to talk about HARD MERCHANDISE. Why does Palpatine look like that? Who's reading "Heirs of the Force?" Is everything dead destined to forever stay that…

Hard Merchandise Chapters 5–7: Dump Truck Thorax

In a bit of a shorter episode this week, we open with some discussion of the upcoming 2027 release of A New Hope back into theaters and the relevant news from NYCC, including the new Kyle Katarn…

Hard Merchandise Chapters 1–4: A Sad State of Affairs

The hotly-anticipated return to THE BOUNTY HUNTER WARS by K.W. Jeter begins with the first four chapters of HARD MERCHANDISE. I was hotly anticipating it, anyway. And we've got a lot of catching up…

OSW Interlude #26: A Mercy Kill

Hello there! We've returned for yet another interlude, and this time around we're talking about what's going on with Star Wars movies in general, what happened to "the Edwards Cut" of Rogue One, what…

Imperial Commando: 501st: Chapters 15–End: Dude Altis

In what is likely to be the most frustrating ending ever to be covered on this podcast, we reach the finale of IMPERIAL COMMANDO: 501ST this week. Great book, great series, but tragically cut down in…

Imperial Commando: 501st: Chapters 13–14: Schrödinger's Canonicity

Our trip through the REPUBLIC COMMANDO series might be drawing to a close, but it ain't over yet! One of our minor characters takes a tragic left turn, another minor character makes an incredibly…

Imperial Commando: 501st: Chapters 10–12: Presumably

Wouldn't you know it? Things end up just how we thought they might on Coruscant. They might be ever so slightly better, but not as good as they would be if everyone was where they were supposed to…

Imperial Commando: 501st: Chapters 7–9

In so many ways, it feels like we've truly hit the calm before the storm, dear library patrons. The extraction plan is in motion, and it's going FAR too smoothly for comfort. Also: there's a "crisis"…

Imperial Commando: 501st: Chapters 4–6

Things keep trucking along, both on Coruscant and in Kyrimorut! That said, I'm uneasy. Everything seems to be going just a bit too smoothly. But first, we dig into Mando'a, Pammant, and… Star Wars:…

Imperial Commando: 501st: Chapters 1-3

We did it! We can read! And things aren't too terribly sad yet, but all the ingredients are there: Darman and Niner are stuck with the Empire, Kyrimorut is going just a bit too well for comfort, and…

OSW Interlude #25 - Crawling Out of the Cave and Back Into the Glow of the Twin Suns

Good. Lord. Can you believe we disappeared for that long? It's honestly upsetting. But that's all behind us now. Hopefully you kept up on your Shadow Games reading? Obviously I kid! We're just happy…

OSW Interlude #24 - Wanna See Me Do It Again?

This might be the biggest Star Wars podcast ever recorded. That's probably hyperbole, but I don't even care because it certainly felt that way. We cover not one but TWO episodes of THE MANDALORIAN…

Order 66 Chapters 21-End: Harvey Korman vs. Art Carney

Order 66 Chapters 15-20 - Wam Sitwer

Happy Mandalorian Season 3 day everyone!!! Two episodes inside a week? How unlike us! But unfortunately this week's reading ends on what just might be the most painful cliffhanger that this show has…

Order 66 Chapters 10-14: Starring All Over the Place

After a brief (and unintended) break, we've returned with the next set of chapters for ORDER 66. Anakin said that "this is where the fun begins," but I'm not feeling like things are actually going to…

Order 66 Chapters 7-9: Big Oof Chapters

Zey is side-eyeing Kal and the Nulls, the government is side-eyeing Besany (in a manner of speaking), and Darman gets some news and... reacts. This week's Article From the Archives: Edruu

Order 66 Chapters 4-6: Callista

Oof. This episode is late. Sorry about that. Just please do not blame Cole for my transgression. Anyway, I feel like I'm always writing that things are getting rough for our heroes in these books,…

Order 66 Prologue-Chapter 3: Justice for Tuvix

HELLO 2023!!! I don't know what that is as far as Stardates go, but that's only somewhat relevant on this episode. Trekkie nonsense aside, we're picking back up with the Omegas in ORDER 66 by Karen…

OSW Interlude #23: 40-Year-Old Fanfic

Surprise! We're back. Before we even thought we'd be, really. And we're all over the place! Hunting down weird out of place MIDI music, looking at a Star Wars fan zine from 40 years ago, a battle…

Path of Destruction Chapters 28-End: Sithual?

The end has finally come. The bouncers have lost their mind, the Thought Bomb is ready to detonate, and Bane is SO ready to be done with all of these idiots. Also: emails, Wookieepedia updates, and…
