[Editor's Note: The following is a combined review with STAR WARS JEDI QUEST: The Way of the Apprentice.]--These first two installments in the Jedi Quest series follow young Anakin Skywalker and his master, Obi-Wan Kenobi, as Anakin begins his apprenticeship. The books are repetitive and somewhat long on exposition, but the audio productions help overcome these defects. Jonathan Davis's readings are superb. His clear voice seems made for narration, and he does excellent imitations of the voices various actors have given the characters in the Star Wars films. Add to this John Watson's familiar score and the judicious use of humming light sabers, roaring engines, and other sound effects, and you have a winning selection for young fans.

Book Description
A must-have read for all Star Wars fans, this is the amazing, exclusive story bridging the years between Episode I and the eagely awaited Episode II. Anakin Skywalker is now twelve and a star apprentice at the Jedi Temple. His Jedi Master, Obi-Wan Kenobi, is concerned about Anakin¹s darker instincts. But he has no idea what is soon to come. After a pilgrimage to a sacred Jedi site to build Anakin¹s lightsaber, the two are sent on a mission to defeat an evil space pirate with a tie to Anakin¹s slave past. On the mission, Anakin shows his Jedi gifts but his actions also foreshadow the darker fate that awaits him.
