Ooooo yes, this was exactly what I needed and exactly what I wanted. A love letter to Anakin and Obi-Wan's relationship beyond master and apprentice with the air of a Clone Wars episode and the action of the prequels?? Absolute perfection. Though I felt the writing to be a bit off sometimes I feel wrong giving this anything less than 5 stars.
Obi-Wan and Anakin's relationship is so beautifully written and the depths of it explored as they figure out how the fit together as equals rather than master and apprentice. It has all the banter and jabbing that they usually have with the addition of their inner voices showing how truly they care for one another.
Something I was not expecting but absolutely loved was how this story went into Anakin adjusting to his mechanical arm and the disconnect he felt from the force when he first gets it. This wasn't mentioned in the films or the Clone Wars show but it adds so much to Anakin's journey.
I also found myself falling in love with Mill and Ruuk, the two other characters the story centers around. Ruug showed a unique insight into Neimodian culture while Mill showed a whole new side to the Force and gave the reader insight into Anakin's skill as a mentor.
Overall I highly recommend this book for any fans of the prequels or Anakin and Obi-Wan in general, it was absolutely fantastic.
