Listen "Alan Dean Foster: Writer of the First STAR WARS Books Ever"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode we are kicking off our series focusing on the writers of the saga, by talking to Alan Dean Foster, the prolific author behind the very first Star Wars novel, as well as its classic follow-up, Splinter of the Mind's Eye. We go through his entire career, from first getting chosen to work on the earliest Expanded Universe works to returning to both the prequel and sequel trilogies. We even dive a little bit into one of his most-heralded works: the novelization for Alien. For more information and updates about Mr. Foster's latest projects and books, as well as the Episode 9 treatment we discussed, visit: AlanDeanFoster.com. This week, we are heading to San Diego Comic Con, so be on the lookout for quick interviews from the floor, as well as some exciting scheduled opportunities that we can't wait to share. Thanks for tuning in and, until next time, may the Force be with us!
