Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker must stem the tide of the
raging Clone Wars and forge a new bond as Jedi Knights. The Clone
Wars have begun. Battle lines are being drawn throughout the
galaxy. With every world that joins the Separatists, the peace
guarded by the Jedi Order is slipping through their fingers. After
an explosion devastates Cato Neimoidia, the jewel of the Trade
Federation, the Republic is blamed and the fragile neutrality of
the planet is threatened. The Jedi dispatch Obi-Wan Kenobi, one of
the Order's most gifted diplomatic minds, to investigate the crime
and maintain the balance that has begun to dangerously shift. As
Obi-Wan investigates with the help of a heroic Neimoidian guard, he
finds himself working against the Separatists who hope to draw the
planet into their conspiracy-and senses the sinister hand of Asajj
Ventress in the mists that cloak the planet. Amid the brewing
chaos, Anakin Skywalker rises to the rank of Jedi Knight. Despite
the mandate that Obi-Wan travel alone-and his former master's
insistence that he listen this time-Anakin's headstrong
determination means nothing can stop him from crashing the party,
and bringing along a promising but conflicted youngling. Once a
Padawan to Obi-Wan, Anakin now finds himself on equal-but
uncertain-footing with the man who raised him. The lingering
friction between them increases the danger for everyone around
them. The two knights must learn a new way to work together-and
they must learn quickly, to save Cato Neimoidia and its people from
the fires of war. To overcome the threat they face they must grow
beyond master and apprentice. They must stand together as brothers.
