One of my friends and I got into an arguement about how Star Wars was written. He seems to think that George Lucas wrote 9 Star Wars novels, and than made the original 3 films based on books 4-6. I think that the films were written and produced, than addapted to novel form. I havn't actually read any of the Star Wars novels except for The Phantom Menace <shudder> which was written by Terry Brooks of Shanarha fame, not George Lucas. Similarly, Attack of the Clones was written by R.A. Salvatore of Forgotten Realms fame, not George Lucas. My poor misguided friend says that episodes 1-3 have been rewritten by commercial novelists to sell more copies. If someone has read some Star Wars novels and can settle our arguement, it would be much appreciated.
