Our friend Eddie let us know that in an interview with Del Rey for “The Clone Wars” Ms. Karen Traviss stated that:

” I’m concentrating wholly on military and political fiction for the foreseeable future. I’m having a wonderful time working on Gears of War, which is a profoundly intelligent and well-created universe about a squad of soldiers in a post-apocalyptic world — yes, there are chainsaw rifles, but it’s also very smart stuff - and I’m continuing the Republic Commando series in Imperial Commando books. There are a few other SW books in the pipeline too, including a Boba Fett one. In my creator-owned work, I’m writing a political thriller series about mercenaries, set in the very near future . I’ll also be doing some comics work, which is something I’ve wanted to do for a long time. So, no vacation for a few years….or sleep….!”

That’s awesome! We’ll keep you updated on the Imperial Commando novels, Boba Fett book, and Karen’s other SW works. Until now, check out her interview with Del Rey here. Thanks again, Eddie!
