I gotta go with hmm.......... I was hoping for more Kenobi to be honest, and what was the A plot be more B Plot. It's called Kenobi!

I was disappointed that the Author & Lucas Books went for the easy Star Wars formula ending. It once again feels like what should have been a B plot, was really the main story after all.

Nein, niet, no. But he was good, and I would listen to him agin.

It was, but I feel bait & switched.

Somewhere in the middle.

Kenobi... duh, he was the only real character that had any... character.

Keboi

This book made me cringe. Some of the characters where pretty cookie-cutter and very predictable.

If it wasn't for the superb narration by Johnathan Davis, I would have scored this audio book much lower. I can imagine if anyone bought the e-book or paperback version of this story they would have been pretty bored. Johnathan does a great job keeping you engaged and breathed life into an otherwise C- book.

I would absolutely recommend this book. It's a well written tale that walks a wonderful line between being a high noon-esque western and a really awesome Star Wars EU book.

I find myself reminded of "Darth Plagueis" and "Dark lord: The Rise of Darth Vader". "Kenobi" really does a brilliant job of exploring a single key character to the Star Wars mythology while also mixing in all the outside players perfectly. Which is a another key aspect of what I like about the other two books I mentioned.

I have. I've listened to "Star Wars: Dark Lord - The Rise of Darth Vader"," Darth Bane: Path of Destruction", "Star Wars Episode III" and am about to listen to "Maul: Lockdown". And Kenobi is the best of them all. Davis seems the more relaxed in this audio than any of those others. He handles the "other" character brilliantly And as good as his Kenobi was in "Revenge of the Sith", he absolutely embraces the Ewan McGregor style "Kenobi" for this tale. And may I say the production and sound effects mix is the best since "Darth Plagueis". The chapter cut sound effect is especially cool.

"Now that's a name I haven't heard for a long time."

Great overall experience. Listening to this one book is what has not only gotten me back in the mood to listen to audiobooks but more importantly it has gotten me back into Star Wars and the EU-verse. Thank you, Audible. Thank you Random House Audio. Thank you, Mr. Lucas. Thank you too, Del Ray. Thanks for the good read.

Kenobi was a well paced story from start to finish, with elements of action and drama mixed nicely. We really get to dive deep into Obi-Won's soul, and learn more about his feeling towards Anakin, and the emotions he felt during and after Episode III.

Not so much a book, but a classic movie.....The Rifleman.

Jonathan Davis is the GO TO GUY to narrate Star Wars novels! He captures Obi-Won's voice and character to a tee, and he gives life to the assorted characters in the novel.

The ending for sure, after Obi-Won resolves the story's issues/conflicts, and grants himself a measure of forgivness for the actions of Episode II/III.

"Yes......absolutely! It ties in several questions I'd often wondered about, about the 'Tatooine' connection.......

Tusken Raider leader referring to the 'great tradegy' in the wastelands.....

A long time ago, in a galaxy far....far...away.....

This is one of the BEST books I've listened to! Easily in the top five!

Being a huge Star Wars book fan I found this one rather plain. The narration was excellent. The story itself was just.... I didn't care for what was going on. The emotional interaction of the characters felt very forced. The back drop of Tatooine was the most exciting thing going on just because I could relate it to the feelings I had watching Episode IV for the first time. But for the love of me I could not give two cents about Tusken Raiders. Its not a bad book. I really don't enjoy saying anything about negative about it. But, I kept having to force myself to finish it. However, I did not return it. Some people really liked it, I found it to be mostly filler.

Struggle, Fear, Love.

That it shows how hard it was for a Jedi to be a Hermit!

Love this guy, can do great character voices!

Made me LMAO in parts! :)

Overall I really enjoyed the whole book. The first 2-3 hours were dull and I had a hard time sticking with it in between plot points. But I’m glad I stuck with it because after the long setup it really takes off and was well written and well performed. It’s kind of a like Clint Eastwood’s western Pale Rider for Star Wars.
Classic story and the peeks at Tusken life were really cool. This should be canon, and maybe if this use this as a basis for the Kenobi film it will.
Highly recommend.

I really enjoyed this book. Ill start by saying that Jonathan Davis did a phenomenal job in the reading. The story was good... not quite great. It felt slightly drawn and did little to add to the 20 year gap of time that Ben Kenobi spent on Tatooine. The book takes place over just a short few months immediately following his arrival and did provide some excellent introspection provided by Ben in the first person as to his mindset and the difficulty he had in the events that unfolded on Mustafar. If you're hoping for a novel that advances the Star Wars story line, look elsewhere. Although well written this novel felt anecdotal.

Great story. I have read 27 Star Wars books as of this review and this one ranks high with Darth Plagueis and the Darth Bane trilogy due to the story line /plot.

He is very talented with his voices. So many of the books Iʻve listened to are narrated by him.
