| Events that occur between 22 years and
19 years before the Battle of Yavin. |
|
| Star Wars: The Clone Wars is an all-new epic
3-D animated film and television series that is set between Attack
of the Clones and Revenge
of the Sith. The first part of The Clone Wars will be
shown in theatres and cinemas from August 15th 2008 and will
continue on Cartoon Network later in the year. |
|
| To coincide with the release of The
Clone Wars, there will be novels, comics, children's books,
activity books, young reader books and visual guides. Licensed
publishers include Del Rey for adult novels, Dark Horse for comcis,
Penguin for children's books and Dorling Kindersley for Visual
Guides.
This is Star Wars Books quick and simple
guide to The Clone Wars books based on all available
information. Individual book entries state whether the book is confirmed
(by either the book's publisher or LucasFilm Licensing via StarWars.com)
or unconfirmed (whereupon sources for speculated books are
given). This means that book titles listed by sellers such as Amazon
or Barnes and Noble will be unconfirmed books until the publisher
lists that book title on their own website with a release date or
through a press release.

Latest The Clone Wars news:

Has Amazon UK confirmed Traviss's The
Clone Wars novel?:
Posted: 10th May
Amazon UK have updated their listing for Karen Traviss's
previously Untitled K. Traviss novel, with the following
title: SW Clone Wars.
Amazon UK's listing is for the US Del Rey import. In another change
to this much speculated book, Random House have also brought forward
the release date from 29th July to the 26th. Certainly this date
coincides with the published release dates for many of the
children's The Clone Wars books.

graphic novel discovered:
Posted: 4th May
TheForce.net are reporting the discovery at Amazon
Canada of a listing for Clone Wars: Shipyards
of Doom by Dark Horse. Written by Matt and Shawn Fillbach
with Henry Gilroy, this graphic novel appears to be the first of
what Randy Stradley, editor at Dark Horse, said would be Clone

Is The Clones Wars DVD to be
released before it hits Cartoon Network?:
Posted: 1st May
According to Publishers Weekly "the U.S. movie
release will be on August 15, followed by the DVD release and then a
prime-time TV series on Cartoon Network and TNT in the fall."
Given the usual three to four month gap between theatrical and DVD
release does this mean we can expect The Clone Wars on TV in
November or December? Not really since nearly every movie has a DVD
release sometime after its theatrical debut. It is more likely that The
Clone Wars will continue on Cartoon Network and TNT in the fall
as originally planned, with the DVD of the movie being released soon
after.

Five more The Clone Wars
books for children in the Fall:
Posted: 1st May
According to Publishers Weekly: "Grosset
& Dunlap will release an additional five titles in the fall in
conjunction with the TV series launch." Also they have
confirmed that in all of the children's books "the
characters are the same in the movie and [TV] series"
- although this would be expected for books marketed at children who
wish to enjoy the movie and television series.
