Anyone read this yet? I rushed right out to get it as soon as it hit the shelves. I found it short, but sweet. Good insight into Dooku's character, and young Qui-Gon's. Interesting plot twists. Not really what I'd anticipated, but I enjoyed it nonetheless! Oh, and it clearly states that Xanatos was Qui-Gon's 1st apprentice and Obi-Wan was the 2nd...a direct contradiction to what it says in the Ep I Visual Dictionary! Hmmm......

Given Qui Gon's age thats not really logical, look at the pressure that Yoda was putting on him to take a padawan in Apprentice 1. Got to run to book store tomorrow.

I picked it up and read it on the plane to Dallas, enjoyed it alot, and liked the insights into the character formations and bonds between the pairings, funny,it named another Jedi as Dooku's master, wonder what happened to him? Of course I enjoyed the Qui Gon bits the most, can't wait for the next one. Having read all of her other SW series, I think it was pretty much what I expected, but that's fine, I enjoy her writing, to bad she hasn't done any more adult SW novels.

Jedi Quest 7 is out??? Did not know that, been waiting for it...
But then again my nearest bookstore is 25 miles away and they still don't have Legacy of the Jedi in stock yet either.

No.....I thought #7 was out...but after searching for it for months...I found out that it wasn't out yet...guess the author had been too busy with "Legacy of the Jedi"..
sorry Cor-Al for sending you on a wild goose chase....one that I have been on for months.....lol

Got Legacy fnally. Just wished it was longer to delve more into the various Master/Padawan relationships. Didn't have enough time to do that. Also Dooku's character I would have liked to seen more detail in -- as to why he turned Sith (besides pride)

Jedi Quest #7 should be out this month (Oct.) acording to the computer at B&N as of last week. I can't remember the title, I didn't have anything to write it down with.

[glow=purple,2,300]Good! I need a new book to read!
I tried the other day to start the second book of the Bounty Hunter's series.... But.... Wasn't in the right mind frame to read about a bunch of dumb Bounty Hunters.... Bobe excluded from the dumb remark....
And You're right 'Mom... It would have been cool if they had written individual books or made it LONGER.....
One thing (the only thing) that bugged me about that book... I was under the impression that Dooku was a Padawan to Yoda.... From Yoda's line in Ep. 2... "...my old Padawan..."
She kinda flubbed that up.... or was I just mistaken?

Xanatos, was not Qui-Gon's second Apprentice but he felt his failure with Xanatos made his success with his first Padawan forefit.
Dooku was Yoda's Padawan. I am under the impression that Dooku's original Master was killed and Yoda finsihed his training.

Also Dooku's character I would have liked to seen more detail in -- as to why he turned Sith (besides pride) I agree with you there. They could/should have written a 500 page novel on the dynamics of these characters!

I think they keep them short because of the age group they are aimed at, supposedly they have a short attention span. HA!
