James Luceno
James Luceno (b. 1947—) is the author of several Star Wars novels and reference books under DK Publishing and LucasBooks. In addition to his Star Wars writings, Luceno and Brian Daley (under the pen name "Jack McKinney") wrote the novelizations of the Robotech series and the Black Hole Travel Agency series. They also worked together on Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers.
He has said he would be interested in writing a book detailing Qui-Gon Jinn's and Darth Plagueis's searches for immortality.
As of March 27, 2007, Sue Rostoni has said in her blog the following, regarding the decision to cancel Luceno's Darth Plagueis novel:
- "You'll still see Jim Luceno around, though, as he's an author we are not willing to lose."
- ― Sue Rostoni
In April 2009, Luceno was reported to be in negotiations to write a new Star Wars novel.[1]
In July 2010, Sue Rostoni confirmed that the Darth Plagueis novel was back on the publishing calendar. It was released on January 10, 2012.
