Title: Red Harvest
Post by: hannsfartknocker on December 02, 2010, 01:01:32 PM
Red Harvest is a prequel to Death Troopers to be written by Joe Schreiber. Originally titled Black Orchid, the book is set for release on December 28, 2010. A hardcover horror novel, it will reveal the origin of the virus from the original book. On April 23, Sue Rostoni posted on the official site forums that the novel was re-titled due to internal concerns that the title Black Orchid sounded too much like a romance novel.

The era of the Old Republic is a dark and dangerous time, as Jedi Knights valiantly battle the Sith Lords and their ruthless armies. But the Sith have disturbing plans—and none more so than the fulfillment of Darth Scabrous’s fanatical dream, which is about to become nightmarish reality.

Unlike those other Jedi sidelined to the Agricultural Corps—young Jedi whose abilities have not proved up to snuff—Hestizo Trace possesses one extraordinary Force talent: a gift with plants. Suddenly her quiet existence among greenhouse and garden specimens is violently destroyed by the arrival of an emissary from Darth Scabrous. For the rare black orchid that she has nurtured and bonded with is the final ingredient in an ancient Sith formula that promises to grant Darth Scabrous his greatest desire.

But at the heart of the formula is a never-before-seen virus that’s worse than fatal—it doesn’t just kill, it transforms. Now the rotting, ravenous dead are rising, driven by a bloodthirsty hunger for all things living—and commanded by a Sith Master with an insatiable lust for power and the ultimate prize: immortality . . . no matter the cost.

This is on starwars.com as a download.... just excerpts from each chapter, but they are up to chapter 6 now, and it is pretty good.
Hope they arent putting the best parts of each chapter up though.
Its a must have for me.

Up to chapter 8 now.
Still got my interest peaked, but I hate when they release parts of the book before the actual release... I think I have read much more than I actually have, and then have trouble actually sitting and reading the whole book later.
I am still looking forward to this one.

I picked this up this morning, at our local Hastings for $19.99 plus tax. I should have preordered it online and saved even more.
Thanks to their placing the chapters on starwars.com for digital download, i am already about halfway through reading it.
It is still a pretty good read. I am enjoying it a bit more than I thought I would, which is really reassuring so far.
There is nothing worse than buyer's remorse.
But I fear I will be finished before new years actually strikes.
