Don't you think these guys have it bad enough? I mean think about how many died when those rebel terrorists destroyed the Imperial Spacestation. All those innocent construction workers and peace keeping storm troopers. It's too bad the Empire couldn't bring about the peace they tried to bring in the galaxy. Those filthy rebels and their anarchy. I'm sad to see a mutilated stormie.

This sounds like one of those things that's a great idea on paper, but turns out to be a major disappointment.

I just grabbed this off of a Star Wars board:

"In the time immediately following the destruction of the Death Star and the years between the Battle of Yavin and the foundation of the Rebel Base on Hoth, the Empire's grip on the galaxy has become an unyielding fist of retribution. Pressed into action by Emperor Palpatine, Imperial forces have stepped up efforts to hunt down and imprison Rebel sympathizers, shipping them off to newly formed detainment moons via huge prison barges. By necessity these barges are floating chambers of degradation and vice, notoriously unreliable spacecraft staffed by Imperial corrections officers whose cruelty rivals that of the inmates. The Imperial Prison Barge Virtue is hauling its load of prisoners, criminals and murderers, human and non-human, across the galaxy, when it breaks down in deep space. Soon after, the ship's warden discovers a derelict Star Destroyer, seemingly abandoned, and sends a boarding party to scavenge parts to repair the Virtue. Half of them don't come back. The ones that do are infected with a virus so deadly that within hours, it has wiped out ninety-nine percent of the barge's population. But for the handful of survivors - two brothers, the Virtue's female chief medical officer, and a sadistic captain of the guards, along with a certain rogue smuggler and his Wookiee sidekick - the true horror is just begun. Because those inmates and guards who died of the virus don't stay dead...and when they come back, they're extremely hungry. Against their better judgment, the survivors take refuge aboard the massive creaking emptiness of the Destroyer, only to discover that its original population has not disappeared at all - and that they've been waiting for them."

Zombies people!! This would be super sweet!! :drinking:

From the plot Summary it kind of sounds like... Event Horizon, Dead Space and Star Wars all rolled into one. Very cool, Im hoping it lives up to the unreasonably high expectations I have for it :lol:

[DarthJoe8]

I don't usually buy Star Wars novels but I will get this one for sure, maybe the audio book to listen on the way to work...:drinking:

I find some of the Fan-fiction to be ok at times...

You know what would trump an audio-book?

if George Lucas and Lucas arts let them make a movie, theyd definitely have to take Han Solo and Chewbacca out of the picture though since Harrison Ford is getting on in years now... But I don't see it happening, but I mean wtf, george lucas already said hes never making another star wars movie anyway, let someone else give it a shot george :roll:

Awesome idea. When did you come up with this and did you get your inspiration?

[The One and Only]

They could do a CGI flick like RESIDENT EVIL:DEGENERATION or the Clone Wars series on Cartoon Network. Heck, do a DTV flick like the Warner Bros. is doing with the DC Comics characters. They might still be able to use Harrison Ford for the voice like the old radio plays they did in the early eighties.

Whooooooo...

This sounds like it's going to be wicked.

If you ask me, it's probably just the franchise’s way of staying in step with Star Trek in working on new, bold, and fresh story lines to keep fans entertained.
I’m contemplating putting in a pre-order at Amazon.com.
