Publisher's summary
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The Republic has fallen. Sith Lords rule the galaxy. Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi has lost everything . . . everything but hope.
Tatooine—a harsh desert world where farmers toil in the heat of two suns while trying to protect themselves and their loved ones from the marauding Tusken Raiders. A backwater planet on the edge of civilized space. And an unlikely place to find a Jedi Master in hiding, or an orphaned infant boy on whose tiny shoulders rests the future of a galaxy.
Known to locals only as “Ben,” the bearded and robed offworlder is an enigmatic stranger who keeps to himself, shares nothing of his past, and goes to great pains to remain an outsider. But as tensions escalate between the farmers and a tribe of Sand People led by a ruthless war chief, Ben finds himself drawn into the fight, endangering the very mission that brought him to Tatooine.
Ben—Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, hero of the Clone Wars, traitor to the Empire, and protector of the galaxy’s last hope—can no more turn his back on evil than he can reject his Jedi training. And when blood is unjustly spilled, innocent lives threatened, and a ruthless opponent unmasked, Ben has no choice but to call on the wisdom of the Jedi—and the formidable power of the Force—in his never-ending fight for justice.

Story
As ruthless apprentice to Darth Vader, Starkiller was mercilessly schooled in the ways of the dark side, commanded to exterminate the last of the purged Jedi Order, and groomed for the ultimate Sith power play: Assassination of the Emperor. He served without question, killed without remorse, and lost his heart without warning to beautiful Imperial fighter pilot Juno Eclipse, never suspecting that he was just a tool in the schemes of his masters - until it was too late to escape their lethal betrayal.

It is an age of exploration. Jedi travel the galaxy, expanding their understanding of the Force and all the worlds and beings connected by it. Meanwhile, the Republic, led by its two chancellors, works to unite worlds in an ever-growing community among near and distant stars. On the close-orbiting planets of Eiram and E’ronoh, the growing pains of a galaxy with limited resources but unlimited ambition are felt keenly. The two worlds’ hatred for each other has fueled half a decade of escalating conflict and now threatens to consume surrounding systems.

For the handful of scattered Jedi, survival is imperative if the light side of the Force is to be protected and the galaxy somehow, someday reclaimed. Yet more important still is the well-being of the twin infants, Leia and Luke Skywalker, the children of Anakin and his doomed bride, Padme Amidala. Separated after Padme's death, they must be made safe at all costs, lest the hope they represent for the future be turned to horror by the new Sith regime, and the unspeakable power of the dark side.

But first Obi-Wan must help his undisciplined apprentice, who still bears the scars of slavery, to find his own balance.

On the planet Tython, the ancient Je’daii order was founded. And at the feet of its wise Masters, Lanoree Brock learned the mysteries and methods of the Force - and found her calling as one of its most powerful disciples. But as strongly as the Force flowed within Lanoree and her parents, it remained absent in her brother, who grew to despise and shun the Je’daii, and whose training in its ancient ways ended in tragedy. Now, from her solitary life as a Ranger keeping order across the galaxy, Lanoree has been summoned by the Je’daii Council on a matter of utmost urgency.

Story
For the handful of scattered Jedi, survival is imperative if the light side of the Force is to be protected and the galaxy somehow, someday reclaimed. Yet more important still is the well-being of the twin infants, Leia and Luke Skywalker, the children of Anakin and his doomed bride, Padme Amidala. Separated after Padme's death, they must be made safe at all costs, lest the hope they represent for the future be turned to horror by the new Sith regime, and the unspeakable power of the dark side.

Story
The Republic is decaying, even under the leadership of Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, who was elected to save the galaxy from collapsing under the forces of discontent. On the tiny but strategic planet of Ansion, a powerful faction is on the verge of joining the growing secessionist movement. The urban dwellers wish to expand into the prairies outside their cities–the ancestral territory of the fierce, independent Ansion nomads. If their demands are not met, they will secede–an act that could jump-start a chain reaction of withdrawal and rebellion by other worlds of the Republic.

Full Praise to John Jackson Miller.
Would you consider the audio edition of Kenobi to be better than the print version?
The Star Wars audiobooks narrated by Marc Thompson and Jonathan Davis are always fantastic. Their voices capture the different characters and species amazingly well through out the whole performance. Music and sound affects from the movies is provided at appropiate places complimenting the fantastic storyline.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Kenobi?
Obi-wan's first trip to the Claim.
Which character – as performed by Jonathan Davis – was your favorite?
Jonathan Davis does a true credit to Obi-wan but his performance as the antagonist Oran Galt resonates. Preception of Galt slowly sifts throughout the novel and Davis carries this remarkaly well so that even as Galt's character shifts you see the traces of the person he once was, is precieved to be and the villan he becomes.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Obi-wan's strength and moral intergrity. Even in the face of what he's lost and when confronted by an evil similar to what he's just escaped Obi-wan refuses to surrender who he is to the Dark Side, there is a moment when he can take out his loss, sorrow and grief on another and once again choose to do what is right.
Any additional comments?
There are too few books that do true credit to the character of Obi-wan Kenobi. Even in the movies his story is shadowed by another. In Episode I he is the apprentice to a great Jedi Master. In Episode II and III while a Master in his own right he is overshadowed by Anakin's deeds and powers, and the audience is enraptured by Anakin decline.
Respected throughout the Jedi Order, Obi-wan is considered the ultimate Jedi, one who embodied all a Jedi is supposed to be. Star Wars Kenobi caputres that core essence of who he is and provides reasonable explanations for how the Ewan McGregor character evolved into the cray wizard and hermit Alec Guinness supposedly is when first introduced at the begining of a A New Hope.

Starts Out Slow But Well Worth Sticking Around For
Would you listen to Kenobi again? Why?
First, Jonathan Davis does a very respectable Kenobi accent, and in general is very easy to listen to. Davis's command of inflection, accents, etc., made the story more engaging and a great listen. The greatest compliment I can pay here is that when I was listening, the "one man is doing all these characters, male and female" perception faded almost immediately and I just got pulled into the characters and their stories. And like other Star Wars books, sounds effects and music are used well, but not overdone.
Second, there are enough twists and turns in the story to keep it engaging. It's a well written story overall. In addition, John Jackson Miller does just the right amount of tie-ins to the movie plots and EU materials. I won't comment on specific parts so as not to spoil it, but the story is cut into parts, all with their own sub-arcs, but they all tie together and weave in and out from each other at times. Some things I expected would happen didn't as well, so it's not as predictable as you may expect from some Star Wars lore.
What did you like best about this story?
Regarding the story: I would say the unexpected twists and turns kept me coming back to listen whenever I could. And while the character development initially had me thinking that the story was a little slow, it soon made the book very engaging with a fair amount of depth for what is really just a fun diversion from reality. I find myself kind of hoping that there will be another Kenobi book following this one.
Which character – as performed by Jonathan Davis – was your favorite?
Obi-Wan
Any additional comments?
The one challenge I had with the story was that it starts off a bit slow with the character development and descriptions after some initial excitement in a cantina. I realize that is important for the remainder of the story, which overall was quite good. This comment is mainly for the person contemplating getting the audiobook. Be patient, let the storyline develop and you will be pleased with it overall.

A great story. Not tons of action, but very good.
The story gets better and better and better. Starting off fairly slow. You wonder who the antagonist is, what the story could possibly be about... But it does unfold and ends up being a great read.
Vocal performance was awesome. Well read.

The western Star Wars fans have been waiting for!
I personally loved this book. I've always thought it would be very difficult for Obi-wan Kenobi to remain in the shadows on Tatooine. In the original Star Wars movie, he seems very knowledgeable about the planet. How did he get so? The narrator and special effects make it an amazing experience. Until Disney comes out with a Kenobi movie, this is the next best thing!
