Summary: Another Brillant Success for Jude Watson!
Review: "The Deadly Hunter" is nothing short of award-winning. After helping another planet, Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his Padawan Obi-Wan Kenobi are back on their home planet of Coruscant. Before returning to the Jedi Temple, the Jedi make a stop at a run-down cafe run by an old friend of Qui-Gon's, Didi, and his daughter, Astri. Didi is frightened that a bounty hunter is trying to kill him and asks Qui-Gon to help protect him. Qui-Gon could not refuse the plea of an old Jedi friend, so in the blink of an eye Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan are trying to track down a shape-shifting bounty hunter. But the Jedi have made one wrong step and now the bounty hunter is after them too! With a deadly whip that can become a laser and bones that can collapse so she can slip under doors, this is the deadliest opponent Qui-Gon has ever faced. Is anyone on Coruscant safe while this daughter of death is lurking in the shadows? Will this be the end of Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan, Didi, and Astri? Pick up "The Deadly Hunter" and see for yourself. I guarantee you will love it.

Summary: An awesome Jedi Apprentice book
Review: After a relatively weak performance in The Shattered Peace, Jude Watson returns to form with The Deadly Hunter. An old friend of Qui-Gon's is being stalked by a vicious bounty hunter, and our Jedi heroes find themselves outmatched and outwitted at nearly every turn. After a climactic battle in the snow, The Deadly Hunter ends on a cliff-hanger to rival any that has come before.

As usual, Watson is at her best in showing the dynamic between Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan. Ironically, young Obi-Wan looks down his nose at the cafe dive Qui-Gon's friend owns. It's a pity Watson didn't know about Dexter's dive when writing this one.

Summary: Back in shape
Review: After the last book, which preview into the next book was probably the best part, it's good to see that the promise was not an empty one. As good as we've gotten used to with great promise for the next one (two??). The only complaint about this and all the other books I share with the rest of Watson's audience: too short.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wow!
Review: Anyone who complained that #10 was a little on the slow side will love this one. It's non-stop action from start to finish. It starts out with a slight detour for everyone's favorite Jedi, they go to visit an old friend of Qui-Gon's. Obi-Wan, as law-abiding as ever, disapproves of the dodgy character. But when they discover that there have been attempts on Didi's life, both Obi-Wan and his Master are pulled into a web of deception and nefarious schemes in an attempt to get to the root of the problem.

Watson creates another story arc with this book, and we'll all be waiting on pins and needles for #12 to come out.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: The Deadly Hunter
Review: Boring many times, but involving other times, The Deadly Hunter starts up a new story arc in the Jedi Apprentice series, and it is not too bad, though it is definitely the worst book in the series, leveling with Book 10: The Shattered Peace. A deadly bounty hunter is after Qui Gon Jinn's friend, Didi -- and no one knows why. She strikes unexpectedly, and each time she is more deadly then the last. Obi Wan and his Master Qui Gon Jinn need to find out the identity of this bounty hunter, but she is too untouchable. Her movements are quick and agile and she is nearly impossible to capture. If she is not handled with soon, the consequences will get even more harsher. And they will -- because now Obi Wan and Qui Gon are her targets too...

Summary: Wow!- But whats up w/ u Jude?
Review: Hey, the Deadly Hunter was great. I'm a huge Star Wars fan(kudos if any of u peeps know who Mazzic is)and I've read all the JA books. This one was cool, but-the next two? Cmon. For all of u who know, 12 and 13 are called, 'The Evil Experiment'-ooh that just sends chills up my spine- and 'The Dangerous Rescue'. Alrightee then. Thats just interesting. Anyone who agrees or knows who Mazzic is, email me beldar@compuserve.com. I cant wait in silence any longer.

Summary: After the last boring books, Watson gives us on of her best
Review: I almost not bought this book, so much I was frustrated by the last two. Yet, it would have been a huge mistake. The N# 11 is clearly one of the best apprentice book. It is full of actions, and thrill. Our two heroes are at their best, and their relationship begins to really grow up into a friendship. Insights in the temple life are great as well as the come back of Thal and Yoda. I especially like the fact that until the end we are unable to fully understand the plot and know who is bad or nice. The other side of Coruscant was also fascinating. If you have not read the preceeding books you can begin by this one, but of course you would missed the amazing 7 first books.

Rating: 5 stars
