RIP Aaron Allston

Post by VagueDurin »

I just read a post by Timothy Zahn announcing the passing of Aaron Allston, father of Wraith Squadron and all around accomplished story teller. He was one of my most favorite EU Authors...

I really enjoyed the Wraith books. Sad news indeed.

He will certainly be missed. Wraith Squadron is still my favorite series.

Aye... It was always my irrational hope that Lucasfilm would see the missed opportunity and finally create a live action or animated series based of Rogue/Wraith Squadron, and bring in Allston/Stackpole to either write or to at the very least consult on the project.
