Master & Apprentice is the complete, unabridged audio rendition of the canon novel of the same title, penned by Claudia Gray. Jonathan Davis lent his voice to the audiobook performance, which was brought to listeners by Random House Audio on April 16, 2019.
As Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi explore a perilous new world and an uncertain future, an unexpected proposition puts their relationship in jeopardy.
A Jedi's path demands fearlessness in battle, unwavering guardianship of justice, and deep understanding of the Force. Yet, perhaps the most vital role for a Jedi is imparting knowledge to the next generation. Master Yoda mentored Dooku, who in turn mentored Qui-Gon Jinn, and now Qui-Gon is responsible for his own Padawan. Despite Qui-Gon's extensive experience facing dangers as a Jedi, nothing frightens him more than the potential of failing his apprentice.
Obi-Wan Kenobi holds his Master in high regard, but struggles to fully comprehend him. Why does Qui-Gon frequently disregard the Jedi's established rules? Why does Qui-Gon gravitate towards ancient Jedi prophecies rather than more pressing matters? And why was Obi-Wan not informed about Qui-Gon's consideration of an invitation to the Jedi Council—an acceptance that would signify the end of their partnership? The underlying reason terrifies him: Obi-Wan believes he has let his Master down.
When Jedi Rael Averross, another former student of Dooku, seeks their help with a political conflict, Jinn and Kenobi journey to the Pijal royal court for what may be their last shared mission. A seemingly straightforward task quickly becomes entangled in treachery and haunted by visions of catastrophic events in Qui-Gon's mind. As Qui-Gon's belief in prophecy deepens, Obi-Wan's confidence in him wavers—just as a threat emerges that will force Master and apprentice to unite as never before, or face permanent separation.
