Book Review - Star Wars: Master & Apprentice by Claudia Grey

Unlike a lot of people, I really enjoyed The Phantom Menace. Qui-Gon Jinn quickly became one of my favorite characters, and I've really wanted to see more about him.

Star Wars: Master & Apprentice by Claudia Gray tells the story of an early adventure of Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi. It is available as an eBook, Audiobook, and one of those paper things your grandparents used to read.

The Good

Story. This book had a solid story that felt like Star Wars. The mystery was intriguing, the action exciting, and the politics not tired.

Characters. The characters felt very true to the films. The new characters felt like they belonged in the Star Wars Universe.

Twist. This book had quite a twist at the end that I did not see coming.

The Bad

Jedi Council Angle. This novel has an offer from the Jedi Council to Qui-gon to join it. This really doesn't fit in with the comment from The Phantom Menace about Qui-gon being on the council if he weren't so rebellious.

What I Would Like to Have Seen

I with the narrator had put a little more excitement in his voice.

Overall

Star Wars: Master & Apprentice by Claudia Gray is a great novel I couldn't put down. The novel tells an early adventure of Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi and explores their relationship. The story was solid. The characters were true to the film. The new characters felt like they belonged in the Star Wars Universe. There was a twist at the end I didn't see coming. I give this book 4.5 out of 5 eReaders.
