JAKe Announces New Star Wars Book How to Speak Droid with R2-D2 http://bit.ly/129OIsw

JAKe sent an update to tell us of his new book. “How to Speak Droid with R2-D2”, coming Fall 2013!
Following the success of How to Speak Wookiee comes this essential manual for interacting with droid units in various situations. Droids are made to be reliable, helpful, and daring, but they can be
frustratingly stubborn. This convenient sound guide will help new droid users bypass that malfunction and utilize them to their full capacity. Featuring helpful scenarios—like convincing a droid to play back full messages, serve beverages and hors d’oeuvres at events, diagnose and repair mechanical issues on an X-wing, or just walk the dog—plus a sound module of 10 different droid phrases demonstrated by R2-D2, this handbook is a necessity for any new droid user.
Urma Droid is an expert on human-droid relations, specializing in R2 character studies. She lives and conducts research on Coruscant.
JAKe was born in Hull, England, but was raised by Wookiees from a young age. He speaks the Wookiee language fluently, but can communicate with an R2 unit enough to get his pencils sharpened. He lives and works in London.
You can pre-order this now from Amazon and should be released August 20th 2013.
