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 .
They must stand together as brothers..
To overcome the threat they face they must grow beyond master and apprentice.
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.
The lingering friction between them increases the danger for everyone around them.
Once a Padawan to Obi-Wan, Anakin now finds himself on equal--but uncertain--footing with the man who raised him.
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.
Amid the brewing chaos, Anakin Skywalker rises to the rank of Jedi Knight.
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.
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.
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.
With every world that joins the Separatists, the peace guarded by the Jedi Order is slipping through their fingers.
Battle lines are being drawn throughout the galaxy.
