I, historically, am a pro-Jedi partisan, but the Council really come off as truly unhelpful and bordering on deliberately malicious. Obi-Wan is Here we go again.
They both clearly care for each other deeply already. Anakin struggles a lot, and Obi-Wan wants to help him so much. He compares Anakin's impetuousness and rashness to his own as a child, and to Qui-Gon's. I think that what he doesn't see, though, is the desire for control and power in Anakin that was never present within him as a padawan.
Since Anakin has known real oppression and exploitation, power is always going to mean more to him than to other Jedi, who have been raised with it all their lives. Of course Obi-Wan would completely misunderstand the message he's trying to communicate. Also, what was the deal with the ghost of Darth Maul building Anakn's lightsaber for him?

I enjoyed getting to see Anakin build his lightsaber and struggle. Obi-wan has much to learn about teaching a Padawan. Obi-wan is still grieving the loss of Qui-gon, and has idealized him in his mind.
I understand some of the secrecy required, but the lack of clear communication on all levels in the Jedi Order is exasperating. Mar 17, Jacob Vanden Avond rated it really liked it. Really good book, very interesting. I think I would have liked it a little bi more if it was longer, but it was still good. Aug 16, Jenifer rated it really liked it. A story between Episodes 1 and 2.
Anakin is now 13 years old and is moving forward in his Jedi training. His master, Obi-Wan, and himself are assigned a delicate task that will test Anakin's training and his loyalty.
This book was a short story, but well written. I enjoyed the dynamic between Obi-Wan and Anakin right away. You really felt their relationship was real. I also liked how this story almost set up the path for Anakin to start distrusting the Jedi that eventually leads to his becoming D A story between Episodes 1 and 2.
I also liked how this story almost set up the path for Anakin to start distrusting the Jedi that eventually leads to his becoming Darth Vader. There are moments when you can see the clear strings being pulled to lead Anakin down that path of the Dark Side.
They main meat of the book revolves around a slave trader, Krayn, and his own relationship to Anakin. The fact that Anakin himself was once a slave plays a huge role as well. I enjoyed the story overall, despite how short it was, because it really set up the start of when Anakin really began down that path towards the Dark Side of the Force. Obi-Wan sees it at the end, but practically ignores it or pushes those feelings down in order to keep his word to Qui-Gon and not fail in his training of Anakin.
I thought it was a well thought out story that just hints at what else is going on within Anakin's mind and heart. It was done very well. Sep 05, Saimi Korhonen rated it liked it Shelves: star-wars. I've been meaning to re-read the whole Jedi Quest series for a long time and now, finally, I started it!
I don't remember much of anything that happens in these books, so I'm excited to re-live them now years after reading them for the first time as a kid. Path To Truth was a solid start to the series. These books are very easy to read, very fast and very short, so you if you are looking for an in-depth analysis of the galaxy and multi-layered mysteries, you will not get it from this series.
These stories' main focus is on the relationship between Anakin and Obi-Wan, and their individual characters. I think they were both written very well in this. Anakin's past as a slave was addressed in this book, as were his traumas relating to it. The antagonist of this story is a slaver, so there was quite a bit about Anakin, his past and his anger that stems from that past.
That was all very fascinating to read about. I also really love the character of Siri, and I think she had a cool arc in this book, though I wish we'd gotten to explore it more, but, since this is Anakin and Obi-Wan's series, it's not surprising or overly disappointing that we didn't. But I'm happy to be reading about her again. I'm excited to continue with this series! Jun 01, Brad rated it liked it Shelves: star-wars. Remember in Phantom Menace, Anakin was the cute 7 year old slave.
Then we next saw him in the Attack of the Clones and he was a teenage Padawan. This series of books traces the Jedi training than Anakin went through, and of course a few adventures thrown in for good measure.
This being a Young Adult book, the story is fast, and there is no over building of tension or characters. This story rated around 2. Obi-Wan and Anakin are sent by the Jedi council to escort a ship to keep them safe from a pirate attack by a known slave trader. Does Anakin want to stop slavery? Does Tatooine get a bit warm in summer? Somehow I forgot to put this in Goodreads I thought tying this book into Anakin's background as a former slave was pretty interesting.
Everything about this series definitely hammers home Anakin's anger, fear, doubt, and emotional instability which is always a little Oct 03, Lisa rated it really liked it Shelves: star-wars , children. These young readers books do an amazing job at character development. Anakin is trapped between the kind young boy he was and the fearful arrogant young man he will become and Jude Watson does a masterful job at showing this. Aug 15, Roz K rated it it was ok Shelves: star-wars , mg-lit , sw-legends.
The Jedi continue to be not super great about slavery and especially about dealing with Anakin's past as a slave. Jude Watson continues to shallowly deal with complex problems at the expense of the story as a whole. About what I'd expected, to be quite honest. I really enjoyed probably the last third of the book. I really liked what the story that was going on there.
The rest of the book was okay. I think this might be the weakest entry in the series, but it's still pretty decent. Dec 20, Jack rated it it was amazing. A great book with fantastic writing of the main characters. Really gets into their heads and thought processes, while feeling perfectly in character. I also really like that it's not afraid to be dark and mature, without every being edgy. A great start to the series and a fantastic book on its own. May 03, Jessica rated it it was ok Recommended to Jessica by: me.
It was okay, but just as with the movies, you keep wanting things to end up differently than youknow that they eventually will. Jan 03, Jurgen rated it it was amazing. Great start of the jedi quest series!
I enjoyed the story. It was cool reading about how Anakin got his lightsaber. Jul 10, Jean-Francois Boivin rated it liked it Shelves: star-wars-junior-novels.
Ilum is the primary source of the rare crystals that Jedi use to focus the energy contained in their lightsabers. Ilum in the Rise of the Empire Era When it is time to construct a personal lightsaber, a Jedi Master takes his or her Padawan to this icy planet.
There, they face the bitter cold, dangerous ice peaks and huge local predators called gorgodons. Once they reach the cave that holds the 'saber crystals, the Padawan faces somewhat more mystical challenges unique to each Jedi's quest.
These challenges might take the form of visions -- Anakin, for example, fought an illusionary duel with the late Darth Maul when building his own lightsaber. At the end of the "battle," the Padawan Skywalker had his fully constructed lightsaber, which he must have physically built while in the vision. This is just one example; every Jedi's experience is different and wholly personal. In either the Rebellion or New Jedi Order eras, heroes may still visit the planet, but only as the result of a hyperspace mishap, a crash, or new information recovered by Jedi Academy researchers.
In this case, any Force-sensitives may make an automatic Wisdom check once on the surface of the planet. If they beat a DC 14, they can sense a Force residue left by thousands of generations of visiting Jedi.
This feeling can guide the Force-sensitive character up the ice mountain and to the Crystal Cave like a Force-based homing beacon. Ilum in Your Game Characters who wish to visit Ilum must learn the location of the world from the Jedi Council, and the Council must have a very good reason to share the information. Otherwise, characters are most likely to visit the frozen planet on their own Jedi quests.
