Star Wars: Brotherhood by Mike Chen (Author),
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker must stem the tide of the raging Clone Wars and forge a new bond as Jedi Knights in a high-stakes adventure set just after the events of Star Wars: Attack of the Clones . The Clone Wars have begun. Battle lines are being drawn throughout the galaxy. With every world that joins the Separatists, the peace guarded by the Jedi Order is slipping through their fingers. After an explosion devastates Cato Neimoidia, the jewel of the Trade Federation, the Republic is blamed and the fragile neutrality of the planet is threatened. The Jedi dispatch Obi-Wan Kenobi, one of the Order’s most gifted diplomatic minds, to investigate the crime and maintain the balance that has begun to dangerously shift. As Obi-Wan investigates with the help of a heroic Neimoidian guard, he finds himself working against the Separatists who hope to draw the planet into their conspiracy—and senses the sinister hand of Asajj Ventress in the mists that cloak the planet. Amid the brewing chaos, Anakin Skywalker rises to the rank of Jedi Knight. Despite the mandate that Obi-Wan travel alone—and his former master’s insistence that he listen this time —Anakin’s headstrong determination means nothing can stop him from crashing the party, and bringing along a promising but conflicted youngling. Once a Padawan to Obi-Wan, Anakin now finds himself on equal—but uncertain—footing with the man who raised him. The lingering friction between them increases the danger for everyone around them. The two knights must learn a new way to work together—and they must learn quickly, to save Cato Neimoidia and its people from the fires of war. To overcome the threat they face they must grow beyond master and apprentice. They must stand together as brothers. Read more
*Very mild spoilers* Mike Chen truly knocked this one out of the park, for me. He successfully plumbed new depths of Anakin and Obi Wan's characters, in ways that none of the media (canon and EU) up to this point has be able to do, for me. Having both characters actively contemplate how they've changed individually and as a unit (including what they each got wrong over the apprenticeship years) finally fills a crucial narrative and emotional gap that has existed between the snarkiness, condescension and resentment of Attack of the Clones, to the heartbreaking emotional revelation by Obi Wan on Mustafar in Revenge of the Sith: "You were my brother, Anakin! I loved you!" I include all the comics, novels and animated series in this. Aside from maybe a couple moments in the Clone Wars series, and the spectacular opening sequence of Revenge of the Sith, I've never felt like Obi Wan and Anakin had ever been more than teacher-student/master-apprentice/exhausted parent-uncontrollable teenager - until now. All of this, plus *very* cool additions to canon small moments and Big Moments (i.e. "That business on Cato Neimoidia..") which truly add that much more weight to the Tragedy of the Chosen One, and a galaxy "(left) in darkness." If you yell "Noooo!!" at the screen every time you see Anakin chop off Mace Windu's hand, or get emotional every time you hear the words "Execute Order 66," then this is a perfect addition to your Star Wars collection.
