SPOILERS FOR STAR WARS: KENOBI I'm currently reading a book called Kenobi it recently came out and so far it's interesting I thought it would be a 1st person book considering the title is Kenobi but it's 3rd person and it follows a few other characters not that any are really interesting except Orinin. Though so far I just finished part 1 and all that happened so far is Kenobi just arriving on Tatoonie and settling in and a few Tusken attacks. The Author seems pretty well known from clone wars stuff though because Satine has been mentioned. A pretty long part about Orinin tell Kenobi how Anakins mother died. And Kenobi doing some heroic stuff like saving some local chick. He often relates back to events with Anakin when trying to communicate with Qui Gon, So far it's good hope it stays that way I could see it making a excellent Movie spin off between Episode 3-4.... You know those movie spin offs Disney said they would be doing

The Author seems pretty well known from clone wars stuff though because both Satine and Ahsoka have been mentioned. A pretty long part about Orinin tell Kenobi how Anakins mother died. And Kenobi doing some heroic stuff like saving some local chick.

You know those movie spin offs Disney said they would be doing I DIDN'T READ YOUR REVIEW BUTTTTTTTTT I'm reading the book right now. I'm on page 3.

Darth Plagueis, Death Troopers, Choices of One. Plaguies, Thrawn Trilogy, Revan, Annilhaltion, Labrynth of Evil. Labyrinth? I assume you've read the rest of the Dark Lord Trilogy? If so, I consider ROTS to be the best novel in that trilogy. And then The Rise of Darth Vader and then that one.

I want to read Kenobi. And based on Newan's positive review (so far) I think I'll get it. There's so many books I want to read its not funny.

Well... I like a lot... but my all time favourite would be the Republic Commandos series, the Fate of the Jedi series, and the Legacy of the Force series. There are probably lots of good ones that I've forgotten.

And I think it would be cool if the author did a good job with it. Like the author could combine robotic thoughts with human thoughts so you could see how R2 sees the galaxy.

But really, if R2 spoke basic or something it would be interesting to have a book about him because he's seen so much and his memory has never been wiped... (I say if he spoke basic because a book just about his thoughts would be kind of meh..)

Well I haven't really read books with Wookiee translations so idk about that but from what I would imagine it to be, I don't think it would work that well with a droid..
