Why read on Fable?
Publisher Description
“Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi strides—and soars and plots and duels—again in this stirring new addition to the Star Wars saga. . . . This splendid adventure yarn offers a gut-wrenching surprise on nearly every page and a knock-the-socks-off ending.”—Publishers Weekly
When the economically depressed government of Ord Cestus threatens to sell incredibly deadly battle droids to the Separatists, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine dispatches a team led by Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi to the planet. Their mission: to halt the deal. A peaceful resolution is preferable, but if all else fails, the Republic will not hesitate to demonstrate the consequences of disloyalty by launching a full-scale attack—wiping out not only the means of biodroid production but countless lives as well. The prospect of such a slaughter only fuels Obi-Wan’s growing suspicions about the sinister path the Republic seems to be taking. Facing a crisis of conscience, Obi-Wan must find the wisdom and strength to prevent a bloodbath and safeguard the Republic—while abiding by the ancient code to which he has pledged his life.

“So this book was just “fine”. There are some weird things, like force-sensitive droids and Kit Fisto training a group of terrorists. I also found a romance between two of the characters to be creepy (iykyk). The mischaracterization of Obi-Wan is also wild here. There are a lot of decisions he makes here that I just don’t think he would do. Some of the Clone trooper characters are interesting and I like some of the action. The Ventress scenes are all good. I do think it could’ve been 100 pages shorter as it drags in parts. Also Dooku prominently featured on the cover but only being mentioned in the book is so cruel.”
