Novels have the construction taking place at Despayre, IIRC. But Lucas doesn't pay attention to the novels, so probably Kashyyyk.

Yet another reason why the novels are such total shit. (exceptions being the Heir To The Empire trilogy-the only books approved by Lucas himself)

That trilogy was the first set of Star Wars books that I read. It was fucking awesome and Timothy Zahn is a God when it comes to writing.
HEHE!

Hey, I actually like the novels. Mainly because they're all accepted as true in the SW world (at least, the stuff that's not contradicted by the movies), unlike the Star Trek books, which are the real BS.

The subtle use of symbolism amazes and astounds.

It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

*sigh* And why's that?

"I haven't gone by the name Obi-Wan since...oh, before you were born..."
But why would this conflict with Ep III? I would have thought (if anything) that Padme would be pregnant, but the twins wouldn't have been born yet, would they?

Actually, Star Wars novels cannot be accepted as canon. Why? Because, (as George Lucas has repeatedly stated), they are set in different universe.
And I think that latest trek books (New Frontier series) are great
