A recently announced Star Wars: The Old Republic novel by Sean Williams is coming to your local bookstore in 2010:

A listing has shown up in the PubEasy ordering database for a novel titled Star Wars: The Old Republic by Sean Williams (isbn: 9870345511324) to be released July 27, 2010. [Source]

Sue Rostoni offered further information regarding the novel's possible release date along side Star Wars: The Old Republic:
Upon prompting about a novel for non-gamers who would still like to enjoy the story behind Bioware's new MMO, The Old Republic, Sue Rostoni said on Starwars.com's message boards that, "A novel will come out sometime around the game release time and that's all that's been determined so far." [Source]

As much as we would like to speculate on how long "sometime" is from the release of the novel for hints at when the game could be released we have to remember that this is likely Sometime(TM). For those interested in a Star Wars: The Old Republic novel it looks as if you will see one very soon. Hat tip to Dan.

If there's a release date for the novel, then the story IS complete. Can't set a deadline till they're sure that everything's good as can be - BW policy

I think it's pretty safe to say that we know when our game is coming out (book often after game hint hint)

SPRING RELEASE FTW!!! :)

(hellz yea I'm still clinging to my golden ticket from 2004 :O)
