I'm still not done with I,Jedi...but I likev what I've read so far. I agree Luke treats the apprentices like children...I was glad when Corran told him about it. I also liked the Mara Jade in the mix for a bit.

No prob. There are so many facets to I'Jedi that's it's actually hard to pick my favorite parts. I like Corran a lot, that's kind of why I took his 1st name as my Jedi last name minus 1 r. I really like the parts about the Jedi Academy. Let's face it Luke is starting from scratch, so to speak, please tell me who gets things right the 1st time through when you have nobody alive you can go to for help. Luke does make many mistakes, but so do all the students to. Corran's corsec was coming out a bit strong also Corran couldn't make up his mind whether he was corsec, pilot or Jedi---at least not till he built his own lightsaber from scratch. It seems in this story to Mara has fondness for Luke that starts to show up.

I agree...When Mara asked Coran to watch out for Luke...not what a hard core ex-Imperial agent would say!
I thin it's interesting how Corran's family lacks the telekensis ability. But they make up for it in many other aspects.

true. Iknow when he saw the memory of his grandfather--everytime I read this part I feel the power in how it's presented. I'm rather glad it's a story--I wouldn't want to feel all of that myself.
I also remember some very funny things in I' Jedi:
When Corran decides that Mirex & Mara should not meet because they are such strong women--that was rather funny,
Another part in the beginning when Han tells Corran that:
He's finally" met someone who has in-laws as intersting as mine"(Han talking)
A couple of serious parts:
The basic story of I'Jedi is the story of man attempting to his best to find his wife so that they can begin a family---so family is very strong in this book.
Luke talks to Corran about his "psychic wound" because Corran cannot feel his wife after the shock of realizing she's missing.
