I don't think this needs its own thread since there are not that much people here who are interested:

The "Thrawn Trilogy" by Timothy Zahn comes as an audio play to Germany. "Heir to the Empire" comes in four parts, part one starts on 08/17/2012, the next parts come every two months.

You can listen to 1 1/2 minutes from part one featuring Thrawn and Pellaeon (and some nice action) here: http://www.starwars-union.de/nachrichten/12422/Thrawn-Hoerspiel_Hoerprobe_ist_jetzt_online/

I, for myself, am excited as hell...
