Episode #143 - Spotlight on James Kahn's 'Return of the Jedi' Novelisation
In this episode, Rachael and Kirsty discuss the following news: - New High Republic info from NYCC - New details on From a Certain Point of View: The Empire Strikes Back - Kelly Marie Tran says she’s open to the possibility of returning as Rose Tico - Ewan McGregor teases new details of the Obi-Wan series We then move into the main topic, which is an in-depth discussion of James Kahn’s impressive novelisation of Return of the Jedi. We discuss the background to the novelisation, and the various ways in which it enhances and even improves upon the film. We read some of our favourite passages, finding ourselves befuddled by Vader’s weirdly puritanical hang-ups and impressed by the new depth leant to characters such as Luke and Leia. Many thanks to Christy Carew for the Scavenger's Hoard theme, and Nemling for our artwork.
