Delays/Moves for EU books

according to the Star Wars Books facebook page, some dates have changed.

Very disappointed in the Heir to the Empire move. That's a big change!

Ugh, I wanted Ascension sooner. And why move Heir to the Empire?

I was looking forward to HttE soon as an excuse to re-read it. I want to re-read it now, but I want to wait for the annotations.

@Ben:

Well hopefully its worth it. The series has been getting better but it still feels like it needs to have that moment where something big actually happens to me. Maybe it'll be in Ascension.

Well, to be honest, I think these are only minor changes in the schedule Wink

As long as they don't push back the Revan and Darth Plageuis novels, I'm happy. Only schedule change that I'd appreciate concerning the two books is if the release date changed to sooner.

The only two that concern me are Riptide and Ascension. the moving back of these times, while annoying that I have to wait longer, isn't so bad from a monetary standpoint, for one at least. Riptide, well, I could most likely get that for £3 on amazon (if I time my pre-order right).

For Ascension, I'm looking at it from a spoiler perspective. I've gotten most of the FOTJ series as either birthday presents or Christmas presents, so if it's put back, closer to Christmas, I'll be happy because it means I won't have to endure as much time avoiding spoilers. Though I may break at some point and just get it anyway Laughing

Didn't Ascension move up?

I thought it was coming out on Aug. 23. So coming out on Aug. 9 makes it... sooner?

The source was the Star Wars Books facebook page so I'm pretty sure it was correct.
