Summary: Wow!!!!
Review: Very rarely have I seen a series get consistently better with each new volume the way this one does. And I thought we'd reached the peak three books ago! Though the error seems to be mostly fixed now, just for the record, this review is for Jedi Quest # 5, The School of Fear. Two years have passed since the last book, and Anakin, now sixteen, has been entrusted with the mission of infiltrating a highly exclusive school along with his chief rival Ferus, in an attempt to discover the whereabouts of a young boy who has vanished. Things quickly go awry for the two padawans, as complications arise, as well as conflict within their own strained relationship. As I said before, this is the best one yet, with a complex though not overwhelming plot that kept me guessing till the end; as well as myriads of character development for Anakin and Obi-Wan both. As another reviewer points out, it's easy to see all the small mistakes Obi-Wan makes with Anakin, all the ways that things could have gone differently, and how easy it would have been to make it so! Do yourself a huge favor, and read this entire series. Don't be deterred by its kiddy exterior, the stories are full of depth and exceed many of the adult novels hugely. The only gripe I have about it is that it was WAY TOO SHORT!! But I imagine that will be remedied as soon as I have book 6...
