Phyreblade Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 This one, HERE. Mind you, that's a link to Amazon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diviciacus Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 This one, HERE. Mind you, that's a link to Amazon. Definitely a solid primer for what happened with Revan between KOTOR and SOR. For a more general "what's going on in the universe" for TOR, I would suggest the novels Deceived, or Annihilation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rawwwdog Posted July 7, 2015 Author Share Posted July 7, 2015 So a book that covers Revan will cover all that is going on in TOR, why it's happening, and what happened before that got us here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadDutchman Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Revan covers everything that happens before TOR, and an excellent primer. Deceived and Annihilation cover the early TOR years, before the game starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karkais Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 (edited) So a book that covers Revan will cover all that is going on in TOR, why it's happening, and what happened before that got us here? No such encyclopedia exists as such, but Revan novel ties the stories of previous knights of the old republic games to SWTOR and tells about Vitiate, Revan and Lord Scourge, mostly from Scourge's viewpoint (thus within the empire). It also tells of the Emperor's ritual on Nathema and how Scourge was named the first Wrath of the emperor. If you want to read about the time when treaty of Coruscant was signed, you could read the "Deceived" novel, although I considered it's story to be much smaller in scope compared to "Revan". I've pretty much forgotten the contents by now since they felt somewhat unimportant. Edited July 7, 2015 by Karkais Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasTheBeige Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Revan and Deceived give great background to the game. I loved those books, even before I played the game. If you want to know what is going on now you have to play the game. Or you could go to Wookieepedia, but it will contain mostly the class stories. Fatal Alliance might take place during this time. That was an interesting book. Side Note: I want a Hex pet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rawwwdog Posted July 12, 2015 Author Share Posted July 12, 2015 Anyone interested I actually found something that covers everything I was looking for Star Wars: The Old Republic: Encyclopedia ^Amazon Link^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghenghis-Khan Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 the darth bane series was by far the best of any star wars books. the revan book is a must read for this game. they need to make a darth bane stand alone movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
