They were written with the knowledge that we : have NOW. : Fall of Reach. : First Strike. : The Flood. : I don't like those. : Why? : Oh, they're great books, but they're OLD. : Fall of Reach came out in 2001, from then to 2010, we have had new Covenant : ships, characters, species, planets, games. : It is out dated and we need to quit saying OH HEY LETS CONFORM TO A BOOK : WRITTEN WHEN WE HAD NOTHING BUT A SINGLE GAME. : Really, guys. : You don't hold a Star Wars novel written when Return of The Jedi was made to : the same level of quality to one written last year.
