Duration: 3:01:08
Description: For this show, I interviewed James Luceno, the surviving half of the "Jack McKinney" pair whose Robotech novels became one of the most controversial subjects in early Robotech fandom. Luceno has gone on to write a number of novels in the Star Wars universe, and many questions were asked about his work in that franchise as well. A good deal of new information came out of this interview, clearing up a lot of long-held misconceptions about the books.
