Endings like this should be illegal!
It's just not fair! I have a hard time waiting a month between comic books - having to wait TWO months for an entire book is more than I can handle!

This is probably my favorite in the series so far, next to #1 "The Rising Force." There's so much character depth here, both for Qui-Gon and for Obi-Wan. And the ending .. oh! I can't help but reread it continuously. I agree with everything everyone has said so far about this book and recommend it to EVERYONE! (I'm 20!)

The real success of this series is its ability to draw you into the conflict and believe that something bad *could* happen. Of course, nothing serious can happen since both characters make it to Epiosde I - but that doesn't rid you of any suspense.

Soooo much better than any of the "adult" Star Wars novels!

I'm 3 Times The High End Of The Suggested Reading Age
If you are a Star Wars fan, these books are fun. They always seem to offer a bit of information that the "adult versions" do not offer. I have read the first four, and will finish #5 tonight. The collected comic series that are brought out by Dark Horse Comics also are great, as are "The Young Jedi Knight Series" All of these formats are a bit different, but they all add to your knowledge of the Star Wars Universe. And after the recent "Vector Prime" I really enjoy these all the more. So I apologize to younger readers if I am tresspassing on your area, but I do it with respect for the Star Wars Saga. And for those over 12, 20, 30, 40 and so on, buy the book, and when the check out person looks at you, proudly say "it's for me", wear your enthusiasm with pride. It takes some practice, especially when I am in the kids section asking a helpful young person where I can find these. I met my match when a young man said, "is this for you" I admitted I was hooked on Star Wars, he said "that's cool". So now I hang out with the young folks and chat about stories that I watched on the screen decades before they were born. If you feel old this is a great cure. Thanks to all young readers!

Wonderful Star Wars Fiction for kids and adults
The entire Jedi Apprentice series works on two levels. For adults, the themes and characters are intriguing. There is enough action in the plotting to keep the intended audience of kids enthralled. Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon are very real and complicated people in this wonderful series. And JA #5 is the very best so far, with a cliffhanger ending with an enormous emotional impact. I can't wait for January!
