Oh, so the novelization will be better written than the actual movie then. I've wanted to see Peter David brought into TFs for years. It's a shame it had to be for the Bayverse.

I'm not real familiar with Peter David so I'll reserve judgement until I read it. That said, I think Alan Dean Foster was doing a great job and will be sorry to see him go. For that matter, Alex Irvine did a decent job on TF: Exodus. I wonder why they didn't employ his talents for the adaptation. Maybe they were concerned about blurring movie-verse with WFC continuity....
