I think it's that they're done with Holostar... that they've already moved onto their next pitch, which is CN4. The Death Star: So Named Because Living On It Means Almost Certain Death.

(And before people jump down my throat, I know Cujicor is from the books and not comics, and I personally don't think Cujicor is lame, but I was struggling to come up with an example). And was it just me or did Maya inadvertantly (or maybe on purpose) reveal that the book will at least partially follow the titular Holo-star on some sort of touring circuit? EDIT: Could the planet be... Daluuj? Edited 1 time by MrNomAnor Mar 31 10 7:26 PM.

Knowing what all do about the novel, do you think it should keep it's working title, Holostar, or should it go by something else? What would you name it?

Posts: 13966 May 23 10 5:57 AM	Without knowing who the titular Holo-star is and what kinds of holofilms they make, they should really use the cover of this book to make a parody of that old A New Hope poster: You know, the one where Luke has abnormally un-Mark Hamil pecs and abs and Leia has digitally enhanced boobage. Holostar really needs to parody this poster (if it fits in with the holostar in question/the storyline of this book) Edited 1 time by MrNomAnor May 23 10 6:00 AM.

Posts: 5917 Jul 14 10 11:53 PM	Actually, I'm rather expecting the cover to look like this movie poster... Because I'm calling it now... Holostar will be the Star Wars version of "the Bodyguard", with Dash Rendar in the Kevin Costner role. The Death Star: So Named Because Living On It Means Almost Certain Death.

Jaina realized with a cold shudder that Jacen had not failed. He had sacrificed everything-his name, his family, his reputation, his life- to unite the galaxy. And now here Jaina was, watching the birth of a galaxywide league of worlds dedicated to working together in peace. Had Jacen won after all? -Jaina Solo, Invincible

Second, there's a story description there, which seems to give us a lot of the details we've been lacking for some time. Stranded on Tatooine with a broken-down hyperdrive, Dash Rendar and crew—his Nautolan copilot, Eaden Vrill, and a droid named Leebo—have to find a way to raise credits. It comes in the lovely form of Javul Charn, a multi-talented human holostar being stalked by an over-zealous fan. She needs bodyguards to protect her during her tour along the Corellian Run; Dash needs credits. It’s a perfect match… until things begin to go wrong—seriously and dangerously wrong. By the time Dash realizes that the threat to Javul is not what it seems, he’s in up to his neck in a conspiracy that goes much deeper than anything he would have signed up for. Even with the help of his hated rival—Han Solo—will Dash be able to protect this spoiled entertainer, all the while being reminded that he couldn’t protect his own family?
