Also, word is that the release of Shadow Star, the final installment of the Shadow War novels, won't be until July of 1999 . . . so we'll have to be patient.

Updated the Soundtrack page with a new link; click on it to sign a petition to release the entire Willow soundtrack. (Thanks to David Tayman for letting me know about the petition.)

First off, let me apologize for the lack of updates lately. I've just returned from winter break, and once again have easy Internet access, so expect more frequent updates in the near future. Today, I divided the ever-growing Literature page in the Merchandise section into two separate pages: Books and Children's Literature. (Please note that the comic book now falls under the former category, while the sticker album falls under the latter.) In addition, I added info about and a color scan of the Willow Activity Book to the Children's Literature page, and a new color scan of the graphic novel cover art to the Books page.

12/9/97

Added a color scan of the cover of the sticker album to the Stickerbook page.  Cleaned up some here and there.

9/9/97
Redid the Posters page in the Merchandise section, with new color scans of three different posters and the cover to the novel.

9/8/97
Forgot to mention: the page won the Totally Awesome 80's Site of the Day quite a while ago (May 22).  Put up a link to their webserver, and to Netscape, which you really have to have to fully appreciate the index.  Fixed some other links here and there.

9/5/97
Biggest update ever.  If you've got Netscape 3.0, you've noticed the new spiffy index design.  Loads of articles added to the Library (a new section), along with the first Willow screenplay to appear on the Internet.  (I typed it in myself.)  The new production sketches are also an Internet first.  Maps and Diagrams are new.  Encyclopedia is off to a good start.  Let me know what you think. Oh, yeah, and you can find the Star Wars vs. Willow article and the Warwick Davis bio in the Library.
I'm completely out of space here, by the way.  If anybody has extra space they'd like to donate to a worthy cause, please e-mail me.  Thanks.

8/9/97
Fixed the logo a bit. Added info about The Willow Sourcebook, thanks to Andrew Pitino. Added a new poster and some new information to the Posters page; Posted an an excerpt from the movie novelization on the Literature page.
