  • Episode 48: Jedi Apprentice - The Fight For Truth & The Shattered Peace

    We get another pair of books, these two unlinked, for the first time in the series. The first features Siri Tachi, another young padawan, and some of her growth, as she works alongside the more galactically aware Obi-Wan Kenobi.

    In Shattered Peace, we get to see Obi-Wan continue to struggle to find the line of appropriate behavior between duty and self-care.

  • Episode 47: Jedi Apprentice - The Captive Temple & The Day of Reckoning

    We return in the middle of an investigation to a mysterious intruder in the Jedi temple. Who could it be? (it's Xanatos, like we suspected, Qui-Gon's disgraced former apprentice).

    What's more compelling is seeing how Obi-Wan works through the trauma of war, the loss of trust and how Qui-Gon struggles to find a way to trust someone who betrayed him.

  • Episode 46: Jedi Apprentice - The Defenders of the Dead & The Uncertain Path

    Betrayal and war! Obi-Wan leaves the Jedi Order for a cause he sees as more important than his future as Qui-Gon Jinn's padawan! These two books contain a story that resonates throughout Obi-Wan's experiences as a Padawan, and later as a Knight and a Master, even impacting his mentorship of Anakin much down the line. These are a pair of really good stories!

  • Episode 44: Jedi Apprentice - The Rising Force & The Dark Rival

    We begin the journey of Obi-Wan Kenobi's apprenticeship to Qui-Gon Jinn with the first two books of the Jedi Apprentice series. We learn the struggles of Obi-Wan as he deals with frustration and anger, and see how those grow as he's exposed to the greater galaxy and a broader range of injustice. We see the history of Qui-Gon and the challenges he faces before he is able to fully accept Obi-Wan as his apprentice.

  • Episode 43: Season 2 Overview - The Clone Wars
    We're diving back into season two which wrapped up a couple of weeks ago. I briefly cover the last thirty books we've read, talk about the story, characters, and worldbuilding merits (and demerits) of each, as well as what I recommend as fundamental reading, which ones you can skip, and some details about which books touch on which characters and arcs.
    We'll be back next time, starting the Clone Wars over with Legacy of the Jedi, by Jude Watson - and maybe more!
    You can check out details about each episode including length, ratings for lore, characters, and plot as well as tags so you can find books that appeal to you in the TAAI Overview.

  • Episode 42: Season 1 Overview - The Old Republic

    Today we go over the first eleven episodes, covering books from 25000 BBY to a mere 1000 BBY. We do a quick run down of all the books discussed, how the podcast has evolved, and make recommendations on what to read and why!

  • Episode 41: The Last Jedi

    We round out the Coruscant Nights trilogy with book four - The Last Jedi, not to be confused with the movie by the same name. We get more conflict with Vader, fleeing from Vader, and fighting fruitlessly against, you guessed it, Darth Vader!

    Our next episode will be a season wrap up, and I'm excited to cover everything we've talked about before!wrap-up

  • Episode 40: Coruscant Nights III: Patterns of Force
    We reach the conclusion of the trilogy, but not the conclusion of the story following Jax Pavan. The threat of Vader looms ever closer, but the possibility of a mission to assassinate the Emperor begins to fracture the group. I have a lot of critique in this one, but there are a few interesting notes about the development of Jedi and their training.

  • Episode 39: Coruscant Nights II: Street of Shadows

    Another noir mystery in the dark streets of the Coruscant underworld in the shadowy days following the fall of the Republic and rise of the Empire! We have two stories that barely tie into the main plot, and only through happenstance, but we get a bit better of a mystery than we do in the first of this series.

    We also have one of many quotations of "I have a bad feeling about this!" you can check out the full list here.
