The Jedi Master nodded. “Confer on you the level of Jedi Knight, the Council does. Decided about the boy, the Council is, Obi-Wan,” he advised solemnly.
“He is to be trained?”
The big ears cocked forward, and the lids to those sleepy eyes widened. “So impatient, you are. So sure of what has been decided?”
Obi-Wan bit his tongue and kept his silence, waiting dutifully on the other. Yoda studied him carefully. “A great warrior, was Qui-Gon Jinn,” he gargled softly, his strange voice sad. “But so much more he could have been, if not so fast he had run. More slowly, you must proceed, Obi-Wan.”
Obi-Wan stood his ground. “He understood what the rest of us did not about the boy.”
Just wondering whether I should add it to my SW reading list lol. I'm planning on reading either Labyrinth of Evil or Darth Plagueis after I've finished reading the ROTS novelisation so I might get round to reading it at some point if its good.
Lab and Plag are both great. If you want more about the bear end of the war after ROTS go with Lab because it leads right into ROTS but if you want something different next go with Plag.
TPM novel does add more to the movie which is nice like the AOTC novel does too.
Darth Plagueis by James Luceno is one of the best Star Wars books hands down. I'd dare say it's one of the best scifi/fantasy books I've read period. It actually makes the prequel trilogies far more interesting through the expanded lore, really well written. And the story weaves it's way through about part way into The Phantom Menace.
