Jedi Apprentice 18: The Threat Within / Jude Watson : 4 of 5

My beloved Jedi Apprentice series is drawing to a close - in fact, there is only one more "special edition" story left (a half Qui-Gon/Obi-Wan and half Obi-Wan/Anakin tale). This particular story was a good one, with medium-level action and plenty of character interaction, which is what I've always enjoyed about this series. The basic story is about children rising up against their parents in a society that only works and never has any fun, but it's really only a metaphor for the relationship between Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon. One scene includes a great lightsaber sparring match in which both of their thoughts are narrated - Qui-Gon is very proud of Obi-Wan (and he should be). I can only hope that the next series with Anakin will be half as good as this!
