Would anyone be interested in a discussion post for Chuck Wendig's "Aftermath?"

I'm definitely up for it. Perhaps even figure out a bit of a Star Wars book club? (or incorporate it into the existing Star Wars club?)

For what its worth, there's a very strong evidence now that a character from Aftermath will have a role in The Force Awakens.

Ooooo... Which one? The un-named Admiral?

(And are you going to do a post for the new Rebels episode?)

It'd make sense for it to be the unnamed Admiral, but either they'll spoil that for the next book in the trilogy or he'll just be history by the time of TFA. In this case, it's the young Wexley, he grows up to follow in his mother's footsteps, apparently. In TFA his likely character is "Snap Wexley" and as people have pointed out, in Aftermath, Temmin Wexley has a habit of snapping his fingers. If this is true, it removes Temmin from any high stakes questions of whether he survives a life or death event in the following books, though!

You mean this post? (went up Friday!).

Oops.

I heard about the Snap Wexley toy but hadn't realized the connection to Aftermath. Somehow, not how I pictured Temmin.
