Publisher's Summary

Random House presents the audiobook edition of Master and Apprentice by Claudia Gray, read by Jonathan Davis.

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.

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 Aveross, 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 which will demand that Master and Apprentice come together as never before, or be divided forever.

Good story, tiresome performance.

Jonathan Davis has surely been brought on for his accurate portrayal of Liam Neeson's Qui Gon Jinn, though his diversity is extremely narrow. Most male characters sound like Liam Neeson putting on an accent. It's quite difficult to define which character is which at times. Yoda is exceptionally awkward to listen to. Hoping any if his future readings don't include QGJ as a character, this will hopefully improve the listening.

A story about Jinn

The narrator's British accent as a bit of flop, but he nailed Pax!
The story itself frustrated me for the longest time, as Jinn has always been one of my favourite star wars characters, and this portrayed a flawed side - especially with his relationship with Kenobi. But by the end, it was satisfingly conclusive.

It also felt more like a focus primarily on Qui Gon and his back ground, rather than his relationship with Kenobi. Once I understood and accepted this, I was able to enjoy it more. But as the title suggests, I was not expecting this.

Great for a long in depth story

Over 11 hours which seems quite long, but it’s a good story and provides good depth to qui gon and obi one before phantom menace. Makes you like Gin even more. The story itself was great, although not a great deal happens and could’ve been snipped down, it never felt boring and drawn out, largely due to the narrator and sound effects I presume. Overall a great book - 4/5.

A great star wars story

The book gives a better understanding of Qui-gon Jin, his motives and relationships with Obi-Wan Kenobi, Dooku, and the Jedi council prior to a Phantom Menace.

I really enjoyed it and recommend it to anyone who enjoys diving into George Lucas' universe.
