    About this audiobook

    MASTER AND APPRENTICE

    The Force is strong in twelve-year-old Anakin Skywalker . . . so strong that the Jedi Council, despite misgivings, entrusted young Obi-Wan Kenobi with the mission of training him to become a Jedi Knight. Obi-Wan - like his slain Master Qui-Gon - believes Anakin may be the chosen one, the Jedi destined to bring balance to the Force. But first Obi-Wan must help his undisciplined apprentice, who still bears the scars of slavery, find his own balance.

    Dispatched to the mysterious planet of Zonama Sekot, source of the fastest ships in the galaxy, Obi-Wan and Anakin are swept up in a swirl of deadly intrigue and betrayal. They sense a disturbance in the Force unlike any they have encountered before. It seems there are more secrets on Zonama Sekot than meet the eye. But the search for those secrets will threaten the bond between Obi-Wan and Anakin . . . and bring the troubled young apprentice face-to-face with his deepest fears - and his darkest destiny.

    • 5/5
      I enjoyed this book. The reader did a great job.
    • 4/5
      This is a fast read that gives great insight into the development of Anakin. The storyline moves along quickly (although somewhat predictably). The only thing I struggled with was the inner turmoil in Obi Wan that made him seem weak and ineffectual. Other than that, I enjoyed it and found that the closer I got to the end the less I wanted to put it down.
    • 3/5
      A bit of exposition of the apprenticeship of Anakin Skywalker, shoehorned between The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones. Bear does well within the constraints of the tale: giving a little insight into Anakin's development without making any changes that would necessarily show downstream, and slips in some foreshadowing of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion that takes place in the time of the New Republic. Ultimately, though, the constraints drag down the potential for storytelling, and the net result is like any episodic television show where long-term plot arcs never happen: the characters are much the same coming out as they were going in.
    • 5/5
      I really enjoyed this book. It takes place a few years after the events of the phantom menace. It had an interesting story through out. I liked the introduction of the character Charza Kwinn, their time adored his ship was interesting. I liked how the Master, Padawan relationship was portrayed and Anakins personal trouble and recklessness was done. If I had to list something that I didn't like it would be a particular part in the book that had obi-wan restraining himself from hitting Anakin which dose not seem very Obi-wanish, other than that the story and locations were great and I found it to be a good book all around.
