StarWars.com has recently announced that the popular science fiction franchise will be switching gears toward horror, with a novel titled ‘Death Troopers’ written by Joe Schreiber. Here is what the author had to say of the project

I’m going to be writing a Star Wars horror novel for Lucasfilm. to be released in November of 2009. And although I’ve been specifically asked not to talk about the content of the book, I can tell you that A) It’s going to be very scary and B) It’s hopefully going to be released on the same day that my original horror novel ‘The Black Wing’ comes out. I’m thrilled to have this opportunity, and almost as thrilled to tell you about it.

The Pennsylvania-based Schreiber also penned the novels ‘Chase the Dead’ and ‘Eat the Dark’.
