Star Wars: Revan Excerpt in Star Wars Insider 127

Star Wars Insider Magazine #127 which went on sale July 28th had a short excerpt from Drew Karpyshyn's next novel set in The Old Republic era, Star Wars: The Old Republic: Revan.

The excerpt features Revan traveling anonymously with Mandalorian Canderous Ordo in a visit to a snow swept Mandalorian encampment.  The brief excerpt shows some humor and personality of Revan and reveals a complicated personal life for Canderous and Clan Ordo.

I am really excited for this novel, which is set to be released November 11, 2011 in Hardcover and ebook formats.  

The publisher's summary of Star Wars: The Old Republic: Revan:

There’s something out there:
a juggernaut of evil bearing down to crush the Republic—
unless one lone Jedi, shunned and reviled, can stop it.

Revan: hero, traitor, conqueror, villain, savior. A Jedi who left Coruscant to defeat Mandalorians—and returned a disciple of the dark side, bent on destroying the Republic. The Jedi Council gave Revan his life back, but the price of redemption was high. His memories have been erased. All that’s left are nightmares—and deep, abiding fear.

What exactly happened beyond the Outer Rim? Revan can’t quite remember, yet can’t entirely forget. Somehow he stumbled across a terrible secret that threatens the very existence of the Republic. With no idea what it is, or how to stop it, Revan may very well fail, for he’s never faced a more powerful and diabolic enemy. But only death can stop him from trying.
