NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • An unexpected offer threatens the bond between Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi as the two Jedi navigate a dangerous new planet and an uncertain future in the first canon Star Wars novel to take place before the events of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace.

A Jedi must be a fearless warrior, a guardian of justice, and a scholar in the ways of the Force. But perhaps a Jedi’s most essential duty is to pass on what they have learned. Master Yoda trained Dooku; Dooku trained Qui-Gon Jinn; and now Qui-Gon has a Padawan of his own. But while Qui-Gon has faced all manner of threats and danger as a Jedi, nothing has ever scared him like the thought of failing his apprentice.

Obi-Wan Kenobi has deep respect for his Master, but struggles to understand him. Why must Qui-Gon so often disregard the laws that bind the Jedi? Why is Qui-Gon drawn to ancient Jedi prophecies instead of more practical concerns? And why wasn’t Obi-Wan told that Qui-Gon is considering an invitation to join the Jedi Council—knowing it would mean the end of their partnership? The simple answer scares him: Obi-Wan has failed his Master.

When Jedi Rael Averross, another former student of Dooku, requests their assistance with a political dispute, Jinn and Kenobi travel to the royal court of Pijal for what may be their final mission together. What should be a simple assignment quickly becomes clouded by deceit, and by visions of violent disaster that take hold in Qui-Gon’s mind. As Qui-Gon’s faith in prophecy grows, Obi-Wan’s faith in him is tested—just as a threat surfaces that will demand that Master and apprentice come together as never before, or be divided forever.

Product description

Review

“Gray's other Star Wars ԴDZ—Lost Stars, Bloodline and Leia: Princess of Alderaan—are among the best you can read, but Master & Apprentice stands out as her strongest.”—C

“Thankfully, the novel absolutely delivers on the goods and the wait has been worth it.”
—CԱԳ

Master & Apprentice proves—again—that Claudia Gray ‘gets’ Star Wars.”—Dork Side of the Force

“Gray has not only written her finest novel to date in my opinion, but certainly one of the finest canon novels as well, maybe the finest.”
—The Force

    Gives some pretty good context of the Qui-Gon / Obi-Wan relation. Especially love the "flashbacks" sequences with Jinn's former master Dooku. Story is true to everyone's personality. Recommend !

    Now to be fair, I haven't finished it yet. But so far the story is engaging and very enjoyable. The book is a decent size and is the first hardcover where the dust jacket didn't drive me insane, so kudos on the design, I guess. It's got a good heft and, of course, it's about two of my favourite Star Wars characters. Can't wait to dive into it again.

    Although the backdrop and side characters feel inconsequential in the grand scheme of the Star Wars universe, this book serves as a nice early story of Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon. We learn a little about their relationship as master and padawan and that's the best part about this story. Overall a good story.

    Claudia Gray has done a GREAT job of enriching the relationship between Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan, several years before the events of The Phantom Menace. It's an interesting and engaging little adventure yarn which I won't bother spoiling. Needless to say it touches on and spins some familiar scenarios featured in TPM. There are interesting and new side characters that give some weight and consequence to the story. I feel like they could have been fleshed out a bit more as each of their stories was quite interesting also. As it is they are just a bit more than serviceable to the plot. Interspersed throughout are flashbacks to Qui-Gon's days as a Padawan under Count Dooku offering insight into the influence prophecy had on the fate of both of them. This is a book that can be well enjoyed by even the most casual fan. Ms. Grays prose is efficient and moving. Wholeheartedly recommend!

    If you have ever wondered about it, read this novel.

    It is an Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon novel, but make no mistake - this is an Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon novel from Qui-Gon's point of view (for the most part). The title could refer to them or another Master-Padawan pair, or simply refer to a single character. There in lies the beauty of it.

    I read 'Lost Stars' first and liked Claudia Gray's writing style, and immediately started this one. While 'Master and Apprentice' doesn't quite achieve that level of masterful storytelling in the galaxy we have come to love, it nevertheless is an intriguing tale and a total page-turner. Two novels in, I feel Gray does a better job writing new characters, and her understanding of the lore sometimes feels a tad lacking, but she still manages to retain the essence of the old characters and the world in moments where it counts.

    The twist, while not a total shock, was well done. The novel gets better as it goes on, and in quite a few ways serves to enhance our understanding of events that we know will unfold.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 24, 2022

    I found this book very brilliant to read, the fact that it's not just Qui-Gon-Jinn but it's also a massive story line as if it's like, who is the murderer? sort of thing, anyway Obi-Wan-Kenobi is up-to date to, as he has the look of Ewan McGregor in the 39-40 BBY, eight years prior to Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace. And Qui-Gon-Jinn has something to hide from his Padawan, yet it all begins on the Planet Teth where Qui-Gon-Jinn and Obi-Wan-Kenobi are still not in sync with each other, Qui-Gon-Jinn still thinks that he needs more training, where as it's easier for him to focus in between fire shots in a battle. Obi-Wan-Kenobi is slightly more off guard and slower than his Master we find out that they are after Wanbo The Hutt, that is they threaten him and plan to take the Crime Lord back to Couracant, that is until his Majordomo. Comes into it, Thurible, and has Qui-Gon-Jinn's Padawan at gun-point, swapping back around and shaking hands on it, and putting matters aside, the Jedi Council back on Couracant does have news for Qui-Gon-Jinn, that is if he will take this one in a life time pleasure. for Qui-Gon-Jinn to be seated on the Jedi Council, he is not sure for if he does this, then he loses Obi-Wan-Kenobi, yet he does want to be seated on the Jedi Council, yet the Jedi Council asks Qui-Gon-Jinn and Obi-Wan-Kenobi that they have a final mission together to be in sync for their bond is not good, and that is to go to Pijal. Where it has been under attacked by an unknown terrorist group, but the Jedi Council hasn't asked them of it, an old friend of Count Dooku's, first Padawan, and Qui-Gon-Jinn's, who is older now and his name is Rael Aveross, Former Jedi Knight and Regent to the next heir to Phijal's throne, that is Princess Fanry. Who is fourteen years old, but Rael Aveross thinks Halin Azukka is the Oposition who are the terrorists, trying to attack the Princess, and requires Qui-Gon-Jinn's help, other than that, you will notice that there are four or five (I didn't count them) Before moments when Qui-Gon-Jinn is fourteen years old-fifteen years old as his missions are in wars and terrorists threats. But mainly, he is inspired with prophecies of the force, both Sith and "the Chocen One" but Count Dooku to take him on as his second Padawan, is intrigued as well, we can tell why! But Rael Aveross is a young Jedi Knight who helps Qui-Gon-Jinn, these are good moments to read. You also have jewel thieves on the Meryx, you have, Rhara Wick, who was on the Planet Hosnian Prime, and at the age of five, she ended mining on the Hosnian Facilities, that is until Czerka Corporation ended blasted down on the miners and caught them as slaves.
    Rhara Wick ran away, as far as she could and met, Pax Miripher who on Couracant, as a kid was in an open locker and was raised by eighty-two, or eighty-eight droids and ended up speaking like one, but mainly cared for Rhara, and after leaving Alderann, they were usally heading for Rodia to get paid. But thought to go to Pijal and get a Kyber Crystal, yet there is a plan to get rid of the Princess, and in a few days, Queen Fanry but who is it out of many characters, well you will see as a good read, At least Count Dooku comes in now and again and you get to know more about Rael Aveross as well. And how Count Dooku was as a teacher and why Qui-Gon-Jinn was interested in all these prophecies, just to tell readers that I like to put in my reviews, the names of all the Planets, but mostly the main Planets and the the Characters, with their background, just in case anybody is confused about it.
