In fact, the "Shadows of the Empire" book is just a part of a big multi-media project from Lucasfilm, as well as the OST. All the merchandising has been made in the same way as a movie. And yes, some scores of the soundtrack have been used in the game.
So, for SotE, you have a book, comics, a videogame, a soundtrack, toys,...
IMO, this soundtrack is pretty good, even if I have to admit that I find it nearer of "Indiana Jones" scores than "Star Wars" but, that's just my opinion...
And grifter, if you can access the CD-Rom part one day, could it be possible that you share the content with us? If it's not too much in illegality, of course, I don't know if this CD is out-of-print or not...
