A Call to Vengeance, final book in the Manticore Ascendant trilogy, a collaboration between David Weber and Timothy Zahn. March 6th.

Conveyex, huh? Remember that list you guys did about stupid Star Wars names for normal things? I mean, I guess we should be thankful they didn’t just go with repulsortrain...

Pretty sure it was “maul” they were going for there. Don’t give credit for subtlety where none is due.

Hell, in 1992 we proved that our Galactic Heroes knew what Hot Chocolate was...why not coffee?

But French is already Latin in origin...

YOUNGLINGS...

All this technical marvel and wonder going on and I’m over here feeling like a got an itch I can’t scratch because the car isn’t perfectly vertical like I imagined it would (and should) be.

The Dispossessed was the first time I read a story where the main character had a male homosexual encounter and it didn’t disgust me. I credit Ursula with helping me on my path to being a less terrible person.

He’ll play and do just fine, and probably win easily. But it’s nice to see that they’re getting their excuses ready, just in case. This time last year, if I’d’ve told you the Jacksonville Jaguars would have the Patriots worried, you’d have laughed for an hour. But looky here, fellas...

Is that bonus points added to the sickness?

I rarely ever say this after watching a trailer, but I’m already hoping for the sequel. If she looks this good as a young, inexperienced woman tracking down daddy mysteries, I’d love to see her in ten years cracking open some grand adventure with a few missions under her belt, so she can really cut loose with the

I thought I was the only pre-Star Wars Timothy Zahn fan I’d see down here in the comments. I commend you on your good taste.

I’m sad they mentioned who the check was made out to, I was really hoping it was a Nigerian Wakandan prince who was unfairly duped out of his millions and just needed the money for bank fees to get his due.

I live in Japan, such a squalid, backward country, that most of the grocery stores, hell, even McDonald’s is cash only, no cards allowed at all.

This is the lamest comment referencing January 2nd you’ve probably seen ALL YEAR...

OMG I’m crying, mostly because the Wesley minifig is crying! Perfect.

BUT WHO WAS THE MAN IN THE TAN SUIT?

Easy, now. There’s a whole bunch of Tampa Bay fans that won’t say a word in defense of this idiot. We’re just biding our time until his liability outweighs his worth. If he continues to “mature” at this rate, I hope to God it isn’t much longer.

Are interdictors even canon anymore? In The Force Awakens, the Falcon drops out of hyperspace inside an atmosphere, to say nothing of the actual gravity well of the planet. You could chalk this up to JJ Abrams not giving a shit about the rules, but then in Rogue One they jumped a U-wing OUT of a planetary gravity

I’m sad that the Stargate franchise doesn’t have a successful video game component...seeing Naquadah on here would have been neat.
