Secrets of the Jedi

Secrets of the Jedi is an essential book in the Jude Watson universe of young reader books. It tells three connected stories about illicit relationships that three Jedi hide: Qui-Gon and Tahl, Obi-Wan and Siri, and Anakin and Padmé. The plot revolves around the Jedi trying to save a young boy and his family from an assassination plot by a gang of bounty hunters. This book should probably be read after reading both the Jedi Apprentice and Jedi Quest series, but you could also enjoy it on its own if you prefer chaos.

To be a Jedi is to safeguard peace in the galaxy. To be a Jedi is to defend justice against tyranny. To be a Jedi is to rely on the Force. To be a Jedi is to not love or live as normal people do ... at whatever the price. Jedi know that love is not meant to be for them. But when Obi-Wan Kenobi and his fellow apprentice Siri approach a very human falling, the reverberations are felt for many years ... to when Obi-Wan has an apprentice of his own, Anakin Skywalker, whose secrets will draw Obi-Wan and Siri further into the Clone Wars.
