CCP's Tony Gonzales is set to unveil his latest EVE Online novel, titled EVE: Templar One, this January 3rd. But for Gonzales, it is a bittersweet moment, as it marks his final contribution to the game world: "EVE: Templar One is a labor of love that began in 2009. For now, it is my last contribution to EVE's fiction as I was amongst the casualties of the recent difficult times CCP endured."
EVE: Templar One should prove of particular interest to DUST 514 followers, as the novel reveals the backstory of the immortal soldiers who will make up the game. Gonzales also says that it will follow up on the events of his previous book, EVE: The Empyrean Age. Readers who want to beef up on the lore of both games will appreciate the explanations of how the immortals work and some of the many mysteries that have popped up in the EVE universe.
Gonzales concludes the announcement of the novel's impending release with heartfelt appreciation to fans: "Your support over the years has been overwhelming, and I'll never forget it. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for everything."
Currently the novel is available for pre-order through Amazon.com.

Also this novel comes with a motorized Lazy Susan so you can put it in your garage and watch it spin.

Sad to hear Tony's no longer with CCP. I read and enjoyed The Empyrean Age and I'll be picking this one up too.

Terrible news about TG leaving CCP. His stories are some of their best. And I thought his novel was MUCH better than the second one (The Burning Life, by Hjalti DanÃelsson, aka CCP Abraxas). Ah well.

CCP is making a mistake laying off a writer who can telecommute from home.
