Deathtroopers - Star Wars Horror Novel

Joe Schreiber, the author of the thrillers No Windows No Doors and Chasing the Dead will be penning the first horror novel in the Star Wars universe. In his blog he writes:

I've tried to make it into exactly the kind of book you’d want to read if you were a child of the 70s who grew up with the original Star Wars trilogy and really digs horror in the vein of The Shining and Alien, with a little dose of William Gibson mixed in.

It won't be out until the end of the year, but the front cover art is already up at starwars.com and is full of win.
