Favorite Expanded Universe Characters

I loved the scene too! It was well done and balanced out his anger and self control. I thought it was amazingly well thought out. I would give a round of applause for Jude Watson.

~May

definitly she really captured how he was stuggling but had enough self discipline to lead the mission and get done what had to get done and deal with delays without getting out of control like the speeder and then obiwan injuring his leg. it was definitly very well balanced

I'm so glad someone else has read the books. I think I've asked you before, but have you read the Last of the Jedi series?

~May

i haven't i have wanted to but since they take place after anakin goes to the darkside i have been a bit hesitant to read them though i think i really want to check them out

and i agree i love talking to you and siri espeically and a few other girls who have acutally read the books

You should. You'll really like Ferus' character better because of all the things he goes through. And the last book is very sad. :'( I suggest reading them once you're not hesitant of them. ^_^
Talking about books not very many people have read with someone who HAS read them is refreshing! I'm glad someone likes them!

~May

i agree and thanks for the warning i think i do really want to read them i will check them out thanks again

and exactly not many people even know what those books are so i love discussing them with you girls and you actually read them and know what i am talking about super cool

That's great! Tell me once you read them and what you thought! ^_^

I know, it is SO nice to talk about them with someone other than Shena. Because I haven't ever talked about those books to people because they don't know about them.

~May

Great i will do that can't wait to read them

and exactly i had like no one to talk to about them i kept trying to get my sister to read them but she wouldn't they had a spot on a fansite called fanpop but it was for the most part inactive so it was kinda boring so i love getting to discuss them with your gilrs and finally meet others who have read the books

Yes! That would be great!

I know, you're actually the first person besides my sister who likes and read the series, so it is nice to talk about. Though, I'll probably need to re read them because I've forgotten most things.

~May

same here occasionally i will skim through them so at least i can reread my favorite parts and it jogs my memory about what happened

Yeah! I think I might do that with Secrets of the Jedi....

~May

i just did that the other night to secrets of the jedi love love love that book

I love love love love love love LOVE that book! It's the first book I got that got Shena and I into Jude Watson's books. We had went into Hastings and I remember seeing Qui-Gon on the front and since we'd just watched the Phantom Menace, I picked up and showed Shena. Secretly, I got my mom to buy it for Shena's birthday and after we realized that there was a series about Obi-Wan, we were happy. If I hadn't found that book that day, I don't think that we'd ever have read them. XD

~May

wow very cool i honestly can't remember how i found out about the books but i am glad i did

Thanks! I don't remember when I found other star wars books, but I remember that one clearly!

~May

lol thats cool one of the cool things about that book is unless i am thinking legacy of the jedi (the book i have combines the two books) it has dooku as a master and it even has dooku as a padawan i love that part of the book but i think thats legacy of the jedi

I've read Legacy of the Jedi...but I've forgotten most of it. I remember Dooku and his "friend".
And the sad ending.

~May

yes i liked his friend he was definitly faulty but pretty awsome loved the whole trainging session event with getting the fruit and it was really cool seeing dooku being a young boy and acutally caring for others and being all jedi like lol

Yes, Legacy of the Jedi was all about Dooku, Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Dooku's friend-turned-enemy Lorian Nod. LOVED that book! Though I Secrets of the Jedi better since it's all about Obi-Wan and Siri which makes me very happy

Oh and May, another book was Yoda: Dark Rendezvous(the first Star Wars book we ever read). Remember when we got it from the library and dad read it to us? And how I found the Young Jedi Knights series and got you to read them; also when I read the Junior Jedi Knights series to you XD

OH definitely! I was SEVEN when we read the Yoda book. And that was in the adult section! It was good anyway. XD

Yeah I LOVED seeing Dooku as a boy and being a Jedi. Very odd and exciting!

~May

aww thats cool

and i agree though i loved loved loved legacy of the jedi definitly liked secret of the jedi more

Yeah we were kind of little when we got into Star Wars (I was nine)

Oh yes, I definitely agree I'm planning on reading Secrets of the Jedi this summer since I'm sixteen(and Siri was sixteen in the first half of the book). The whole Obi-Wan/Siri dynamic was the first romantic relationship that I actually liked (before that I disliked all romance in general)

I agree! First romance I actually liked! Jude Watson is a fantastic writer! I wish she would write MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

~May

me too

Mara, Ben, Jaina, Jag, Corran, Anakin Solo, Tahiri (but only in LOTF & FOTJ. I know strange). Yep, I think that does it...
