I bought this book on Thursday, November 15, and finished it two days later because of how good it was!!! Jude Watson has outdone herself again!
Jedi Knight Qui-Gon Jinn and his Padawan, Obi-Wan Kenobi, are still on New Apsolon and are mourning the death of fellow Jedi Knight, Tahl, whom Qui-Gon had pleged his life and his heart to. Manex, the brother of Roan -- the late ruler of New Apsolon -- has been very generous to the Jedi in their time of need. While Obi-Wan is trying to accept Tahl's death as a Jedi would, Qui-Gon is bent on revenge in the memory of his deceased beloved and has already sent two probe droids after Balog, Tahl's murderer. The Jedi contact the Temple and Tahl's Padawan, Bant, and Jedi Master, Mace Windu, come to New Apsolon to help Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan. Bant is angry at Obi-Wan for not contacting the Temple sooner, and since Qui-Gon is not himself, Obi-Wan feels deserted. Meanwhile, the list of Absolute informers is still in the hands of Oleg. When Qui-Gon leaves Manex's home without telling anyone to find Oleg, so he can bring Balog to justice, Qui-Gon is attacked by probe droids and finds Oleg dead, without the list. Eritha, one of the late ruler's twin daughters, is now following her sister, Alani -- who is believed to be helping Balog -- so she can acquire information for Qui-Gon. Yanci, Irini, and Lenz are also trying to help Qui-Gon is his difficult task. Now a female Legislator, who is certain to have the list, is running for Supreme Governor, but she is killed too, also by probe droids. This is another dead end for Qui-Gon, but things are getting worse for Obi-Wan, especially when he, Mace, Bant discover that the probe droid that killed the Legislator was owned by Qui-Gon Jinn. Qui-Gon is now a wanted man, and Obi-Wan is worried for his safety. He is also beginning to question whom he should trust and is hoping that Qui-Gon does not surrender to the Dark Side of the Force. Did Qui-Gon really program the droid to kill the Legislator? Should Obi-Wan be trusting Manex, Eritha, Yanci, Lenz, and Irini? Will Qui-Gon be able to bring Balog to justice? Will Qui-Gon be ALIVE to bring Balog to justice? You will have to read "The Call to Vengeance" and see for yourself.
