Is it a pulp sci-fi &quot;adventure of the week&quot; that almost shaped the franchise before getting de-canonized? Or is it the Super Mario Bros 2 of Star Wars—anomalous yet sneakily influential? Why not both!
Join JOSH, JON, and special guest MICHAEL NIXON (<a href="undefined" rel="nofollow">The Game of Rassilon: A Doctor Who Roleplaying Game Podcast</a>) as they poke and prod at the fascinating artifact that is Alan Dean Foster's SPLINTER OF THE MIND'S EYE, a novel that nearly became the made-for-TV sequel to the very first film in the franchise.
Check your EMPIRE love at the door for just one episode because we're heading to a slightly different galaxy, even farther away—think less &quot;Episode V&quot; and more &quot;Star Wars 2.&quot;
NEXT WEEK: Return of the Jedi!
