The good news is that the gap since the last Star Wars book is over, there are more coming almost every month in the near future, and this book, "Jedi Quest #5 The School Of Fear", is a pretty informative, if not a great read.
Anakin is now 16 and getting closer in age to Episode II. His personal conduct and his abilities continue to develop in expected and troubling ways as well. Envy is the new emotion that Anakin recognizes within himself, and fear is what Obi-Wan feels when he sees the actions that Anakin takes and the results they produce. The fear is for Anakin's future, for even as his skills grow faster and beyond that of any other student, and approaches that of full Knights, his emotions are not what they should be. His emotions continue to make decisions; his extraordinary abilities allow him to extricate himself from the results of those decisions. This time out the consequences that come so close to taking place are some of the direst that have been shared about Anakin's development, and as we all know matters will continue to get worse.
The only complaint I have is that these books are too brief and all seem to run within 10 pages of length of one another. It would seem more appropriate that the tales be told in their entirety, or specifically explained in parts and not stopped between 135, and 145 pages.
In any event, there are more brand new stories (from a variety of Star Wars storylines) coming in February, March, May, July, October, and November of 2003. There are also going to be 2 new electronic books amongst these other books I mention as well.

A Senator's son, Gillam, disappeared from the elite Leadership School on Andara. The Jedi High Council sent two padawans undercover.
Anakin Skywalker would pose as one there by scholarship. Ferus Olin (Anakin's rival) would pose as the son of someone important. The teens' mission had two parts. The first and most important part was to locate and rescue Gillam. The second part was to learn about a renegade squad of young mercenaries that used the school as a training ground.
***** Brava, Jude Watson! This, in my opinion, is the best of the J.Q. series thus far. Readers get to see another glimpse or two into Anakin's potential. The story is well written and the characters' traits are flawless! Highly recommended! *****

Wow!!!!

Very rarely have I seen a series get consistently better with each new volume the way this one does. And I thought we'd reached the peak three books ago! Though the error seems to be mostly fixed now, just for the record, this review is for Jedi Quest # 5, The School of Fear.
Two years have passed since the last book, and Anakin, now sixteen, has been entrusted with the mission of infiltrating a highly exclusive school along with his chief rival Ferus, in an attempt to discover the whereabouts of a young boy who has vanished. Things quickly go awry for the two padawans, as complications arise, as well as conflict within their own strained relationship.
As I said before, this is the best one yet, with a complex though not overwhelming plot that kept me guessing till the end; as well as myriads of character development for Anakin and Obi-Wan both. As another reviewer points out, it's easy to see all the small mistakes Obi-Wan makes with Anakin, all the ways that things could have gone differently, and how easy it would have been to make it so!
Do yourself a huge favor, and read this entire series. Don't be deterred by its kiddy exterior, the stories are full of depth and exceed many of the adult novels hugely. The only gripe I have about it is that it was WAY TOO SHORT!! But I imagine that will be remedied as soon as I have book 6...

interesting short novel about Anakin's apprenticeship
27. Mai 2003
Format:Taschenbuch
This is a short novel that takes place between the time of the Star Wars' movies Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones. Anakin Skywalker has been discovered by the Jedis and is now the Padawan of Obi-Wan Kenobi, but he is still young and impatient with the ways of the Jedi.
While the main action revolves around Anakin and his rival Ferus being placed undercover in an elite school to find the whereabouts of a kidnapped student, more important is the relationship between Anakin and Obi-Wan. Each one makes mistakes and decisions that we know ultimately lead to Anakin's turning to the Dark Side. The author does a good job of laying the foundation for that later decision.
The main story, however, is a bit light. The characters Anakin and Ferus and Obi-Wan interact with are interesting and written well, but the plot is rather transparent and not all that interesting. I'd recommend this book for its target audience -- young Star Wars fans who are beginning to read longer books -- but there is not much here to interest an adult or older reader.
