Also, it looks like author Jason Fry will be taking part in a book tour to promote the new book.  I know he's going to be hitting a great independent book shop near me.

I got to meet author Jason Fry at his signing in New Jersey today.  He's a very cool guy, and happy to meet Star Wars fans.  I was really happy to see how much time he was spending with the kids on line.  And the Empire City garrison of the 501st was there, too, taking photos with the kids as well as the staff who seemed really pleased to have a good turnout for this book signing.  This wasn't the first time I've met Jason, having met him back in 2007 at SDCC when he was just releasing his first Star Wars book.  And now we're almost 10 years into his Star Wars writing career. 

I'm really looking forward to digging in to the new book and getting more insight into the particulars of the new vehicles.

Amazon has the book on sale for about the same.  The book signing was really the only good reason to pay full price for this book.
