Loyalty and courage. Peace and justice. Master and apprentice. So it has been for many generations within the seemingly tranquil halls of the Jedi Temple. But not every Jedi escapes the allure of the Dark Side....
LEGACY OF THE JEDI spans four generations and determines the fates of Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Anakin Skywalker.
In SECRETS OF THE JEDI, Qui-Gon embarks on an urgent mission to foil the mass assassination of planetary leaders--with long-lasting implications for the Clone Wars.

Hello! Thanks for clicking. I'm Jude Watson, and I write for kids. It's the best job in the world.

As a writer, I wear two hats. As Judy Blundell I write for Young Adults, and I won the National Book Award for my novel, WHAT I SAW AND HOW I LIED.

I write for middle-graders while wearing my Jude Watson hat, which is a bit more colorful. Maybe it even has a spinning propeller on top. I love to write mystery-adventures with thrilling twists and oddball characters and kids who find themselves in impossible situations doing incredible things.

I do all this from a chair, in a little room, in a not-big house, in a small town on Long Island. I like to read and I like to draw (badly) and my idea of excitement is to lace up my sneakers and walk to the harbor and back. I'm a nervous flyer and though I am respectful of the physics of modern aviation I also secretly suspect that it is only the unified belief of passengers that tons of metal can hurtle through the air that keeps a plane in flight. I am also not terribly comfortable on suspension bridges. And don't even ask me to go on a ferris wheel.

I am listing these fears just to clue you in: I'm a physical coward. I'm also a creature of habit. Once in awhile I go a little crazy and take a different route to the grocery store.

Still, I'll throw incredible amounts of danger at my characters. And I'll cackle maniacally while I do it.

Other random facts: During deadline periods I am deeply committed to popcorn and apples.

Every summer I go to Cape Cod, and every summer I wish I had a whole month there. I never do.

I am waiting for the day I'll see someone reading a book of mine in an airport or a train or a diner. I will most likely embarrass myself by cavorting and singing "That's ME!"

Happy Reading!

I really enjoyed this book. Both were good, though I would say that I enjoyed Legacy of the Jedi a little more over Secrets of the Jedi. Don't get me wrong. They are both very good. Secrets of the Jedi is a little more sad. It was written like it should have been but reading it was so sad for Obi Wan and Siri. I enjoyed seeing the connection between Dooku, Qui Gon, Obi Wan, and Anikan in Legacy of the Jedi. If you want to know more about the star wars universe before Phantom of the Menace, you'll enjoy this.

Maybe designed for the preteen age group, I enjoyed this as an adult. A fun story that encompasses the time from a young Obi Wan to a Jedi Anakin.

Though the book is written for kids, it is still a good read for adults. If you are looking for a quick read this is the book for you. The book gives you some really good back ground on some of the jedi characters. It is interesting to see Qui-Gon Jen and Obi wons background. It really gives you something to think about. Obi Won shared the same type of love problems that Anakin did. I wonder what would of happened if Obi-Won would of opened up and shared his story with Anakin. I think Anakin might of felt he had some way to relate to Obi-Won.

A good interesting book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Generations of Jedi
Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2011
Legacy of the Jedi and Secrets of the Jedi, two stories written by the great Jude Watson that give us more insight to the characters we have seen on the silver screen in George Lucas' legendary film saga.

Legacy begins with the future Count Dooku/Darth Tyranus, now recently accepted as a Padawan learner. In the first chapters, he has a friend, Lorian Nod who has yet to be accepted by a Master. Lorian's jealousy at Dooku's promotion drives the young boy to stealing an ancient Sith holocron from the Jedi Library. Looking at the information strikes fear into Lorian's heart. The events that follow turn their friendship into rivalry and almost quickly into hatred. Dooku turns Lorian in to the Council for the theft and Lorian is dismissed.

The rest of Legacy tells the story of Lorian Nod through the viewpoints of the several generations of Master and apprentice, starting with Dooku all the way down to Anakin Skywalker. In the final segment Dooku and Lorian are on opposing sides again, but this time the allegiance either of them bear is the opposite than what it was in the past. This sets the stage for their final confrontation.

Secrets of the Jedi tells a completely different story that shows that Anakin has not been the only Jedi to fall in love. Beginning after the death of Tahl in Jedi Apprentice #15 and Qui-Gon's subsequent quest for vengeance in #16, the story tells of Obi-Wan falling with fellow Padawan learner Siri Tachi and how they had to force to keep themselves at bay from one another throughout the years.

The final story of this book, The Last One Standing, features Obi-Wan in his first months living in exile on Tatooine watching over Luke Skywalker. As the title states, Obi-Wan really is the last one standing of all the major characters of this book as Dooku, Lorian, Qui-Gon and Siri have been killed previously, and he does not yet know that Anakin survived the flames of Mustafar to become the cyborg everyone in the galaxy would fear as Darth Vader. As such when he has to go on an adventure to ensure Luke's safety, he laments on it throughout his task.

Legacy of the Jedi, Secrets of the Jedi, and The Last One Standing tells a tale throughout the ages of Star Wars to the very end with Obi-Wan as the only one surviving, and as such tells its own saga of generations of Jedi.
