Hey all Jezmon here. I’ve taken it upon myself to bring you Normalinauts a semi-regular update on the state of the Star Wars universe.

As you know, our faithful leader has an unending love for the “holy trilogy” (his son’s middle name is Skywalker for Force’s sake). He and I have shared this love together all through our formative years. Sadly, his literary tastes have taken him far from the galaxy far, far away, but that doesn’t mean someone can’t take it upon himself to keep you up to date.

So what can you expect from this column?

• Regular reviews of whatever star wars related materials I’m currently reading(novels, comics)

• Updates regarding new star wars products (toys, rpgs, video games, etc.)

• Guides to get you up to speed so you can jump into or back into the universe.

Currently I am in the middle of the excellent Legacy of the Force series so my first column will get you up to speed on what’s happened in the timeline up the start of the series. Followed by a review of the first novel.

I’ll leave you with one of the best fake star wars products ever produced. Originally from Thinkgeek’s April fools day site, the tauntaun sleeping bag.

Now even though this is a fake product, I’m sure there are crafty star wars nerds somewhere trying to make real ones.
