Rating: Summary: The Best Book! Review: When I read this book I just could not stop, only when I had to shovel the drive way. I read this book one snow day and I just fell in love with it. And when the temple theif witch I can't wait to find who's behind this robbery. I also got a couple of laughs from this book, and how Qui-gon Jinn said he would not take Obi-wan as his Apprentice, Oboy is he wrong! I was sad when and shocked when Obi-wan's friend dies that red hair girl. I can't wait till Jedi Apprentice #7 comes out and what happens to Yoda in the next book? Well keep them coming Waston! P.s. If anyone wanted to know when Star Wars The Phantom Menace comes out the date.

Rating: Summary: Jude Does It Agin!!!! Review: I just finished this book and it was great! I was highly filled with emotion threw this hole book. I would have to say this book does not at all take long to read (I finished in 2 days)but it is packed with adventure,action,and many emotionel moments. This book has been one of the best in this JA series yet! What is interesting about this book is that it switches from Qui-Gon and his duties, and to Obi-Wan and his in about the first 12 chapters. I'm not saying this is bad or anything but it made me feel like I was interested in the book all the time. This is because sometimes the plot can get kind of boring (in any story and this system keeps you inmterested all of the time. This was a great book and any Star Wars fan thats out there like me will love this #6 JA book!!
Rating: Summary: WOW! Review: What can I say? WOW! I have read all the other books also and I love them all! This one is very fun and fast-paced. I REALLY don't like Neild. I felt like Obi-Wan when Cerasi died. I felt sorry for Obi-Wan. I'm almost 13 so I am almost past the age group but I know that I will like this series forever! When my friend first lent me #1, I was like, what book is this? My friend told me it was about Obi-Wan when he was 12 and 13. Because I have a HUGE crush on Obi-Wan, I couldn't help but squeal because I was SOOOO happy. Anyways, this book goes a little slow but it gets faster and faster until your head spins. I almost wanted to cry when Qui-Gon told Obi-Wan that he wouldn't take him back as his Padawan!
Rating: Summary: A Let-down from Defenders of the Dead Review: Overall, I've greatly enjoyed the Jedi Apprentice series. It's not Harry Potter, but it gets the job done. Defenders of the Dead was a highlight, with an ending that left this jaded, cynical adult gasping with shock.Unfortunately, The Uncertain Path leads to too much boredom. Obi-Wan mopes and Qui-Gon sulks, while the Youth on Melida/Daan regress into the children that they are. A few things salvage the book. Yoda giving Qui-Gon a chewing out (sorry, "Yoda a chewing out giving Qui-Gon, hmmmm?"), a touching scene with Cerasi's father, and the lack of quick resolution to the Obi-Wan/Qui-Gon conflict. Hope remains high for book 7.
Rating: Summary: Obi-Wan faces an 'uncertain path'. Review: The bloody civil war on the planet of Melida/Daan has ended with the Young the victors. Obi-Wan has left the Jedi order to stay with his friends Cerasi, Nield, and the rest of the Young to govern the planet. But instead of having peace after so much war, the Young is starting to break up. Everyone is fighting each other, dividing friends. Taking up the chance, the Elders of Melida and Daan begin to protest. Qui-Gon himself is having many problems. After returning Tahl back to the Temple, he still feels betrayed by Obi-Wan for abandoning him. He finds it hard to forgive Obi-Wan for hurting him, can he ever be able to forgive him? Then he discovers that a series of thefts have begun in the Temple. Could it be one of the Jedi students, or someone outside the Temple? Then Qui-Gon gets the shock of his life, Obi-Wan calls for help! Will Qui-Gon go back to his former apprentice to help? A continuation from the previous book, "The Defenders of the Dead", the story really explores the characters of Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon. Obi-Wan has left the Jedi order willingly, yet he begins to have doubts about his choice. Will he ever be one with the Force again? And will he ever get Qui-Gon back as his Master? Qui-Gon is also hurt and betrayed, finding it hard to forgive Obi-Wan. Together they must search their hearts to find out what is the correct path for them. A good ending though you'll probably be in suspense for what is going to happen next in "The Captive Temple". Jude Watson has certainly done an astounding job, the plot and story of the book is so unique and interesting and I couldn't put it down! I still enjoy reading the books as much as I did when they first started coming out in the summer of 1999. This series explains a lot about how Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan first meet. Their beginning is far from simple and all smooth-sailings, which would be pretty monotonous if it was. Though the books are said for ages 9-12, like many other reviewers I agree that the Jedi Apprentice Series are for anybody. Extremely well-written, the emotions, thoughts, and feelings of the main characters are very well put down into words. I also like the different array of humans and aliens which are portrayed, both good and bad; young Cerasi who has seen so much pain, Nield who strongly believes in the "Young's" cause, Tahl who though is almost dying has a strong will to live, and more. The first Jedi Apprentice book is written by Dave Wolverton while all the rest (19 more books) are written by Jude Watson and are all very highly recommended from me. The books don't really 'end' at all, the books ends in either a cliffhanger or with a little glimpse into the future. Believe me, once you start reading them, you'll want to read the next one...
Rating: Summary: Great Book Review: I have just started reading this wonderfull series. This has been the best so far because it was so..different. I enjoyed seing Obi-Wan's struggle by himself. The experiences in this book will be something that affects this character for a long time. It was refreshing to see that this series is not going to be all, master and apprentice going out on another mission. This installment was about character and emotion as well as adventure and excitement. I would not reccomend picking this up if you haven't read the others though...this is definately part of a series!
Rating: Summary: The Best! Review: I loved this book. I've read every single JA book up to number 12. This is one of my most favorite!! It shows hhow even as a Jedi Obi-Wan still makes the mistake that normal kids his age would. Jump into a decision rashly without thinking of the consequences. It also tells how even though he left the order and qui-gon he still relies on the jesi's words of wisdom. It also told of his bond to Cerasi and Neild.
Rating: Summary: A book for Obi-Wan Kenobi fans everywhere! Review: After making friends with the Young's leaders, Nield and Cerasi, Obi-Wan has feeled that he had made the right choice in leaving the Jedi Order to become part of the Young. Qui-Gon is no longer around to help him so Obi-Wan must survive only with the help of his new friends. Tensions are rising now that the Young have won the battle and are in charge of Melida-Daan. Cerasi feels that they should help the people first and leave the burial homes that hold the dead and their holograms alone because her family is their and so is Nield's. Nield, on the other hand, could care less about his family and the people of Melida-Daan; he wants to destroy the burial houses so that no one will ever have to remember the battles. Not only are the Young divided, but Obi-Wan is caught in the arguing and this time Qui-Gon can't advise him. How far will these tensions go? Will Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon even become Master and Padawan again? Read "The Uncertain Path" and see for yourself.
