We explore how getting inside characters' heads provides insights impossible to convey through film alone.What makes certain Star Wars books particularly impactful? We highlight standouts like Lost Stars by Claudia Gray, which offers a fascinating look at why ordinary citizens might support the Empire, and the Queen's Shadow series, which adds rich depth to Padmé Amidala's character.Looking ahead to 2025's most anticipated Star Wars books, we talk about upcoming releases including The Bad Batch: Sanctuary and The Mask of Fear trilogy. We explore how these new books might tie into and expand upon upcoming shows like Andor Season 2.Other topics covered:How audiobooks have become the preferred way for many fans to consume Star Wars literatureThe importance of Senate politics and "behind the scenes" storylines that books can exploreWhy the Thrawn book series has had such a lasting impact on Star Wars canonDiscussion of how books bridge gaps between different Star Wars erasExcitement for upcoming Acolyte tie-in novels that will expand on the show's charactersThe unique value of novelizations of Star Wars filmsThe hosts' varying experiences with Star Wars comicsBooks we mentioned that you can buy through our sponsors:Republic CommandosQueen's ShadowDarth PlagueisLost Stars**************************************************************************This episode is a production of Star Wars Generations, a The Ethical Panda Podcast and part of the TruStory FM Entertainment Podcast Network.

What's up, Star Wars Fans. I apologize to anyone waiting on my works in progress. I am going through a career change, and I will not have the bandwidth to continue in the near future, so my channel might be on pause, or you might see some changes to the types of content I post. The good news is, since I started this channel, I have discovered many other channels that post similar content, and I look forward to seeing what they do next. @TheArchivistPublishing is still producing AI generated Star Wars Audiobooks, and with the best quality I have heard. Much better than mine. @joshadams8317 is pouring his heart and soul into professional grade audiobooks of Karen Traviss's Republic Commando Series. @AdmiralMakati is producing AI generated Star Wars Fan Fiction Audiobooks that are top-notch writings by Gregory O Scott. @swcomicfilms66 is producing Star Wars Audio Comics at peak quality, and covering the comics I want to see most. I recently came across @MangaComicTv, and they are currently reading Star Wars Legacy, so support them if you want to hear the rest. I am a huge fan of @DarthAngelus, who is producing an animated film of Heir to the Empire. I am sure there are more out there, so let us know in the comments if you know other channels that are killing it for Star Wars Expanded Universe content. If nowhere else, I hope to see you commenting on my favorite artist's Star Wars music videos. You know who I mean. @RoyishGoodLooks The Force will be with you. Always. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/decadebird/support

Bienvenidos a otro Podcast sobre libros de videojuegos en TERRAESCRIBIENTE! Hoy comenzamos con la increíble saga de "GEARS OF WARS" "GEARS OF WARS: Campos de Aspho. Libro 1 de Saga GEARS OF WAR. Parte 2. La Batalla de los Campos de Aspho, también conocida como Operación: Nivelador, fue una gran batalla durante las Guerras del Péndulo. La Batalla de los Campos de Aspho cambió para siempre el curso de la guerra de la Imulsión. Los campos de Aspho era un área pantanosa drenada que conducía a Punto Aspho, el lugar que albergaba la tecnología del Martillo del Alba. Durante la batalla, Marcus Fenix realizó muchas hazañas heroicas que fueron recordadas incluso después de que fue encarcelado. Dos años antes del Día-E, una reunión secreta del más alto comando militar de la CGO junto con el jefe de la 26 IRT Grupo de Tácticas Especiales, el Mayor Hoffman y el Capitán Michaelson de la D-Flotilla, las unidades de asalto marítimo y anfibio de la CGO, dos de las unidades de ejército más pequeñas de la CGO. Después de reunir información sobre la tecnología del Martillo del Alba, el Alto Mando de la CGO decidió que no se podía permitir que ese arma existiera en manos del enemigo. Pronto formularon un plan para capturar la tecnología, que se convirtió en la "Operación: Nivelador". Comenzaría con una invasión falsa de la República de Ostri por la ciudad de Berephus. Esto causaría que la nación de Pelles temiera que la CGO estaba detrás de sus reservas de Imulsión. Esto daría a los Comandos de Hoffman el tiempo suficiente para robar la tecnología MdA y permitir que la Compañía C de la 26ª infantería Real Tyrana cortara todos los refuerzos a Punto Aspho. Esperan que Ostri envíe sus tropas para defender a Berephus y Pelles envíe tropas URI a la frontera, reduciendo así la posibilidad de enfrentamiento. La Compañia C comenzó a entrenar en la Base Naval Merrenat para la incursión en los Campos de Aspho, y luego fue transportada a la Base Naval de Fesor para abordar el CNV Pomeroy. Mientras protegían el perímetro de las instalaciones del MdA, el Mayor Hoffman y sus comandos debían matar o capturar a los científicos Indie Anna Meurig, Collun Bettrys y Mauris Ivo, y obtener datos sobre el Martillo del Alba.

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 Traviss! I don't know about you, but I'm not ready. This week's Article From the Archives: Rocket grass

Howdy friends!Instagram: happilybookedpodcastFacebook: Happily Booked Podcast Email: happilybookedpodcast@gmail.com (Anything non-podcast related and/or inappropriate will be reported)Tik Tok: happilybookedpodcastAs always, we are so glad to be able to have our podcast fun and chat away like crazy on Mondays! We are honored that you lovely people want to listen to our rambles...okay, fine! You want to hear about books! But we're a rambly pair and if you ask us to change, you're asking for far too much! But in all seriousness, thank you so much for listening! We (we as in Brooke) trailed off a good bit in this episode, so brace yourselves! There is one spot in this episode where we are chatting about a certain book and accidentally drop the name of one of our dear pals. We did our best to edit it out for privacy reasons seeing as we have not confirmed with this person if it was alright to say her name! So you will probably be able to hear when the slip-up happened as we go from talking calmly to giggling like fools! Oh well! We are who we are. Also, from the time we recorded this episode to its publishing (today, 9/05/22), we gained a wonderful listener from "across the pond" in Europe! Hello friend!! We are so honored you chose to download two of our episodes! Much love to ya! But we wanted to apologize because in this recording we did not have you as a listener just yet and there is a moment we mentioned some other fun locations that we are being downloaded in. We apologize and will rectify that, not in the next episode, but in the one after in Ep. 6! For some unknown reason, I said the author of The Dewberry Farm Mysteries was a "Katherine". That was entirely incorrect, that cozy mystery series is written by a KAREN MacInerney! I apologize for the confusion that I am putting out into the world. Alright, I believe that was all! Below are the treasured show notes! Thanks again for listening and enjoy!P.S.- The movie The Passengers is not as creepy as Brooke makes it out to be. :)10:05 - The Hunger Games Trilogy by Suzanne Collins10:20 - The Wolf and The Woodsman by Ava Reid 10:55 - The Dewberry Farm Mysteries by Karen MacInerney12:30 - Currently Reading Podcast - https://www.currentlyreadingpodcast.com/13:35 - Caron One Pound Acrylic Yarn 14:14 - Psych Tv Show (2006)17:06 - Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone by J.

Episode 19 : L'environnement et les fictions de l'imaginaire Ariel Kyrou, invité vedette de cette émission Gaïa se meurt ! L'urgence environnementale est désormais un thème récurrent qui rythme nos vies : réchauffement climatique, artificialisation des sols, montée des eaux, pollutions, risques nucléaires, extinction d'un grand nombre d'espèces vivantes. L'humanité fonce droit dans le mur. La prise de conscience a gagné du terrain, mais elle n'est pas encore généralisée.Face à ce désastre, que nous disent les fictions de l'imaginaire ? Elles n'ont pas attendu les accords de Paris pour nous parler d'environnement. Nous revenons ici sur leur rôle de lanceur d'alerte, mais également sur la diversité des solutions mises en lumière. Sur la question environnementale, les créateurs de fiction se politisent et viennent se heurter aux discours politiques et économiques. Invité Ariel Kyrou, journaliste et essayiste, grand spécialiste du traitement de la thématique environnementale dans les littératures de l'imaginaire.

Straying away from the typical space battles and alien conflicts, Mortal Dictata tells a moving tale about the fallout of the Spartan II program and what really happened to those who were taken.

Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we conclude our series on the 2005 squad-based shooter Star Wars Republic Commando, on which both hosts worked. We talk about some of the difficulty unevenness of the game, some of the process of building the game, a bit about enemy and squad AI, and especially how we came to differentiate the characters and inject some humor. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Sections played: Through Kashyyyk Issues covered: leaving characters behind, the length of development and how it changes your longer-term plans, having George give feedback on your game, the overly grim version of the game, ignoring feedback given once, the difference of dealing with George vs dealing with LF Licensing, caring more about story than lore, the huge impact on production, the value of the feedback, being on each side of the question of whether to push out a schedule, having Robin Williams suggested for the game, needing the balance of comedy, the use of gallows humor, the impact of voice on a game's budget and schedule, RPGs and text vs voice, the additional cost of well-known names, finding actors more in line with characterization, enriching the script by specificity, having an off-site to plus up the game, looking at the game during in production, facilitating discussions, getting ideas from everyone, stepping back from development to get enough distance, going to Kashyyyk, incorporating another film character in General Tarfful, seeing the ragdoll bug, climbing up to the treetops, fitting this game on a Xbox, having good technology internally, being unclear about objectives, not having characters to rely on for storytelling, reusing enemies etc, having only two people write all the AI but carrying other engineering tasks, how you would approach this today, leveraging gaps in time to get across the bridge, delaying the pay-off to force the player to see it, the milestone process, not having enough investment in the product over the process, cutting part of the bridge level, failing a milestone and using that to improve, needing more spectacle and spit and polish, the AIs throwing grenades back and forth, leaning on the linearity of the game to make the squad seem smarter, "bread-crumbing," behavior trees, multiple path voting, AI and level design working together, finding the edge of AI, how you design for roguelikes instead, adapting to the needs of the game as they went, having a little bit of everything at the end, a notable cameo, the interviews, difficulty in games and different ways to achieve it, toy development timelines, the success of the game as a surprise, the team gift, a team delivering a solid first product, the possible follow-on titles, Delta Squad as canon, how tech could have supported the game better, Tim admits that he is a jerk, a good game with a lot of potential, figuring out how to make the game vs making the game, the strength of second titles, the greatness of the team, who gets design credit on the games, having the opportunity to work on different types of games.

We're back! It's been too long. Lots of nonsense on this one. Some Mandalorian, some Boba Fett, some FACPOV TESB edition, some Star Wars Squadrons, and of COURSE some New Jedi Order. Our next book is Republic Commando: Hard Contact by Karen Traviss, and we're reading chapters 1-4! This week's Article From the Archives: Gordoon Ben's Twitter Cole's Twitter The Skyhoppers Podcast Legends Library

Die Legends halten Einzug in dieser neuen Ausgabe unseres Literaturformats Ausgelesen! Wir reden heute über die Tetralogie rund um die Republic Commandos. Dabei sprechen Maximilian, Carl Georg und Tobias über die Darstellung der Klone im Vergleich zur Kanon-Version in Star Wars: The Clone Wars, darüber ob die Geschichten auch neben dem Kanon koexistieren können, beziehungsweise heute noch lesenswert sind und nicht zuletzt auch darüber, weshalb Maximilian die Werke dieser Reihe zu seinen absoluten Lieblingsromanen im Star Wars-Literatursektor zählt! Wir versuchen dabei so spoilerfrei wie möglich über die Reihe zu reden und gehen erst ab Minute 51:30 in die detailliertere Besprechung des ersten Bandes über. Normalerweise sind diese Ausgaben nicht dazu gedacht Themen spoilerfrei zu besprechen, jedoch bot es sich gerade aufgrund der übergeordneten Themen der Reihe an, bei denen es nicht notwendig ist Handlungsdetails zu wiederholen, um die moralischen Fragen, die aufgeworfen werden, zu besprechen. Außerdem wollten wir euch nicht den Lesespaß vorwegnehmen, sofern ihr bei unserem Gewinnspiel einen Preis ergattern solltet oder durch diesen Podcast Lust bekommt selbst mal einen Blick in die Reihe zu werfen! Blick in die Datenbank Die Republic Commando-Reihe von Karen Traviss umfasst insgesamt vier Romane, als auch eine Fortsetzung unter dem Namen Imperial Commando, welche jedoch nur aus diesem einen Roman und nicht - wie ursprünglich vorgesehen - aus zwei Romanen besteht. Übersicht über die Republic Commando-ReiheDas Werk Imperial Commando, welches wir nur kurz besprochen habenDie Rezensionen zur Tetralogie von Maximilian, als auch Jan, sind in unserer Datenbank aufgelistet Den JediCast abonnieren Wir sind auf allen gängigen Podcast-Plattformen vertreten!

Ausblick Bald erscheint in der Panini Star Wars Comic-Kollektion der fünfte Sammelband zu Knights of the Old Republic und schließt die ursprüngliche Geschichte rund um Zayne Carrick ab. Grund genug also sich dieser Comic-Reihe einmal zu widmen und damit auch wieder Comics ins Zentrum einer Ausgelesen-Besprechung zu stellen! Gewinnspiel [BEENDET] Wie im Podcast angesprochen verlosen wir unter unseren Zuhörern zwei Einsteigersets zu Republic Commando! Diese bestehen jeweils aus Band 1: Feindkontakt und Band 2: Triple Zero von Panini. Wenn ihr teilnehmen wollt, müsst ihr nur die Antwort auf folgende Frage im Podcast heraushören und das folgende Formular ausfüllen! Hinweis: Die Lösung befindet sich in der ersten Hälfte des Podcasts und somit auch im spoilerfreien Teil. Bevor ihr mit dem Lesen der Reihen anfangt, ist es sicherlich gut zu wissen wann man am besten aufhören sollte (da die Imperial Commando-Dilogie ja bekanntlich nie abgeschlossen wurde). Deshalb habe ich Maximilian im Podcast gefragt, ob man eher nach Order 66 oder nach dem ersten Imperial Commando-Roman mit dem Lesen aufhören sollte und bei welchem der beiden Romane man mit weniger offenen Fragen zurückgelassen wird. Was ist seine Empfehlung? Das Gewinnspiel ist beendet! Die Preise werden unter allen Einsendungen mit der richtigen Antwort verlost.Nur eine Einsendung pro Person/Familie/Haushalt!Einsendeschluss ist Sonntag, der 24.

This episode contains spoilers for episodes 1 through 3 of The Mandalorian. The Mandalorian is here, and our Star Wars podcast hosts are excited to talk about the first live-action Star Wars television show. First, Saf and Paul have played Jedi: Fallen Order and are in agreement about the entertainment value of the game but have very different ideas about the quality. Performance issues affect the gameplay, especially the traversal. Saf, a narrative writer for video games, picks out the parts that didn’t work for her. Paul brings the perspective of someone who doesn’t play games often, and praises the story. Then it’s all hands on deck for The Mandalorian. With Baby Yoda and Pedro Pascal’s Mando taking the internet by storm, we talk about how we went from excited anticipation (or weary skepticism) to fully on board with the new show by the time episode 3 was released. We break down what the different directors brought to each episode, and the hopes we have for Deborah Chow’s upcoming Obi-Wan Kenobi show. It wouldn’t be Blaster Canon without a look at the previous Star Wars canon that was moved aside to make room for the Disney timeline. In this case, there’s a lot to say with regards to how the Mandalorians are portrayed in the show as compared to the Expanded Universe. In what ways are the show's Mandos actually more like Legends author Karen Traviss’ in-depth culture-building than like the Mandalorian politics shown in The Clone Wars? The next episode of Blaster Canon will cover The Rise of Skywalker and the end of a Star Wars era, so buckle up for that after November's cascade of content from a galaxy far, far away.

“The Man Who Did Nothing” by Karen Traviss(Originally published in The Year's Best Fantasy & Horror: Seventeenth Annual Collection.)Hursley Rise, May 2There was a boy – five, maybe six – sitting on half a discarded mattress by the kerb as Jeff drove down the road. At first he thought the child was trying to open a bottle of pop, but the closer he got, the better he could see that the boy was making a petrol bomb.Jeff slowed to a crawl and then stopped. He didn't dare switch the engine off, not here. A daffodil nodded in the grass at the side of the road and the whine of a power-drill competed intermittently with music throbbing from an open window. The normality didn't reassure him; he opened the car window about six inches.The child was trying to thread some rags into the neck of a beer bottle, pausing every so often to hold the bottle up to the light, sigh, and resume his task of working the rag into the neck of the bottle with his index finger.For a moment Jeff thought about getting out and taking the thing from him. Then an older boy in the latest Manchester United tracksuit walked up to the kid and crouched over him, like a protective elder brother, and took the bottle gently from him. He examined the wick, pushed it further into the bottle and handed it back to the kid.That was how you did it. Then both boys looked up at Jeff, as if moving as one."Antichrist! Fuckin' antichrist!" they shouted. And the bottle – unlit, mercifully – arced and crashed onto the road just short of the driver's door. Both boys ran back up the road, not looking back.Karen Traviss is the author of a dozen New York Times bestsellers, and her critically-acclaimed Wess’har books have been finalists five times for the Campbell and Philip K.

Star Wars In the Shadows. On this special mini waffle on i talk about a fantastic new audio drama coming out soon called Star wars in The Shadows, it is written, directed and produced by Dany Pépin (37y/o) a French-Canadian born in Quebec, now living in Ottawa, Ontario. SWITS is Dany’s first original story of any type in his second language (English) and only second audio drama project following the surprising adaptation of Karen Traviss’ short story Omega Squad: Targets. Dany was mostly known in Star Wars fandom by his implication in the French community and his Star Wars radio show Star Wars en Direct, both in French (since 2001) and English (2003-2006). SWITS is a classic Star Wars space opera not unlike “A New Hope”. I would describe it as a light fugitive/adventure type of story with some mature theme inserted within. SWITS has obviously been inspired by the Star Wars movies but also its Expanded Universe (EU) like the media giant Shadows of the Empire and The Force Unleashed. There are many small EU references that will appeal to the fans of the genre, but most importantly the participation of Darth Vader, Emperor Palpatine, Xizor, Guri and Mon Mothma in the actual story plot. head to www.creativeaudioscape.com for more info. John Ryan. Cartoonist John Ryan, creator of the Captain Pugwash TV series, has died in hospital in Rye, East Sussex, aged 88. The BBC commissioned the first series in 1957 after spotting potential in Ryan's books about the tales of Pugwash and his nemesis Cut Throat Jake. His agent, Jane Gregory, said there was "a huge amount of love" for the childish pirate and his shipmates, who included Tom the Cabin Boy and Willy. Captain Horatio Pugwash was created in 1950 while Ryan was an art teacher at Harrow School, shortly after he got married to fellow artist Priscilla. It was published, in the same year, in the first edition of the Eagle comic. A book deal followed, before it was adapted for TV by the BBC in 1957, with black-and-white episodes being made until 1967. Colour episodes were shown on the BBC in a mid-1970s revival. Ms Gregory told BBC News he was "always enthusiastic, always charming". "A lot of the character of Captain Pugwash was John, which is probably why we loved him as much. We devote this mini waffle on to the memory of John Ryan.
