Ben Grossblatt, a senior editor at becker&mayer!, the same book production company responsible for crafting and creating both The Jedi Path: A Manual for Students of the Force and Book of Sith: Secrets from the Dark Side, holds a Master's degree in the field of linguistics. Back in November of 2010, he was tasked with the job of inventing a believable Sith language specifically for use in Book of Sith. Grossblatt also authored Speak Like a Sith, an article featured in the 134th edition of Star Wars Insider, where he detailed the fundamental aspects of the Sith constructed language that he developed.
