Topic: New RC Book Title Revealed!

I got on Karen Traviss' site the other day and saw that the next Republic Commando book is gonna be titled True Colors! I wonder if this is a reference to Order 66...?

Here's the link. True Colors announcement

Re: New RC Book Title Revealed!

I think that I just about fainted when I saw the announcement (not really, but I'm a melodramatic type of person, sooo... big_smile)!! I know that the time will just fly by, but WOWZERS! We have to wait approximately*gets calculator* ...... *puts calculator down* A long, long time.


I can't wait to see what the cover is gonna be! I wonder if there'll be any mention of the Deltas, and of Sev's fate?

Re: New RC Book Title Revealed!

I wold love to know what happened to Sev, but im more concerned with Omega Squad. I hope to see more Etain and Darman in the future! smile

Re: New RC Book Title Revealed!

All I want is to FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENED TO SEV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He is the coolest commando anyway. That's the reason why I have his avatar!

Re: New RC Book Title Revealed!

Well, I agree more with Mando Stargazer on the Omega thing. Personally, I would like to see more of Atin... *is as subtle as a bantha*

Re: New RC Book Title Revealed!

Aw, yeah... Atin sorta had something with that Twi'lek waitress, right? ^_^ I'm fine with Darman and Etain... I mean, they sincerely love each other! I think they're so cute! big_smile But I think Karen Travis went a little too crazy with the relationships at the end of Triple Zero. Let's see, by the end of Triple Zero, there is: Darman/Etain, Atin/Twi'lek &, Ordo/Bessany Wennan (sp?)... I think that's two too many clone trooper relationships going on. Not that I'm saying they don't deserve anyone, but it's just not in there nature, is it? I'm not saying they're not human... but, I dunno, I think it's too much at once... meh.

Re: New RC Book Title Revealed!

Nonononononono, I meant more of Atin and Omega.... Not him and Laseema. (ew)

I agree with you about ALL the PAIRINGS! I was like, "okayyyy...."    I prefer the camaraderie between the clones to the new romantic relationships. I mean, I'm happy for 'em and all, but I just don't like romance!

Re: New RC Book Title Revealed!

I just remembered reading in, Spector of the Past that force users can manipulate the rate at which they age, so if Darman and Etain are together and she is able to manipulate his ageing to where it almost stops then he could be the clone that Fett is after in Bloodlines. So in theory if Darman does not follow order 66 and stays with Etain and she is dormant with her use of the Force like Obi-Wan she could go undetected by the empire and live out a natural life.

Re: New RC Book Title Revealed!

It's possible Darman's aging could be reversed like that, but given that Skirata and the Nulls were hunting Ko Sai and she was sent back to Kamino in pieces just screams Kal Skirata.  That, combined with the fact that at the end of Triple Zero everyone went their own way kind of reduces the chances that Darman was with Etain at the time Order 66 was issued, since most commando units operated without Jedi.  While I'm certain Etain or Bardan Jusik would not have been executed by Omega or Delta Squads, other clone units might not be so attatched.

Oh, is someone a bit jealous? wink Just teasing... tongue Poor man deserves some affection more than any of the other commandos. His been through alot with Walon Vau and everything. Even if his relationship is with a dancing ninny of a Twi'lek, hahah. Hm... but maybe we're just assuming too much by saying they're in a relationship?? Afterall, all it said in the book was that they were holding hands... right? Maybe it was just sort of friendly?
Hm, I think I'm going to re-read Hard Contact and Triple Zero by the time True Colors is released!
BTW, I think the True Colors plot will be before Order 66, won't it?

Re: New RC Book Title Revealed!

Jealous? Who, me???  tongue big_smile

I don't know about the time frame of True Colors. I'm bad at guessing--REALLY bad. So I've given up on guessing at ANYTHING! tongue

Re: New RC Book Title Revealed!

Cool cover artwork...  I'm excited! 

I'm a big fan of Omega Squad...  I tend to fret over them...   Those poor boys.  I wanna send them care packages, maybe give them a hot meal...  Gotta support the troops ya know...  tongue

(BTW:  Everyone ought to look into the various adopt-a-soldier programs available.  Its a good way to support troops over seas...regardless of whether you believe in the political reasons behind it all or not.  smile  )

EDIT:  I meant Omega Squad...  I need to stop posting when I'm half awake....

Re: New RC Book Title Revealed!

I fret over Omega. I love them to death! Care packages for clones would be awesome... (BTW, I help with my school's patriot club and we send care packages to soldier almost every month. smile)
