Overview

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

The Republic has fallen.
Sith Lords rule the galaxy.
Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi has lost everything . . .
Everything but hope.
Tatooine--a harsh desert world where farmers toil in the heat of two suns while trying to protect themselves and their loved ones from the marauding Tusken Raiders. A backwater planet on the edge of civilized space. And an unlikely place to find a Jedi Master in hiding, or an orphaned infant boy on whose tiny shoulders rests the future of a galaxy.

Known to locals only as "Ben," the bearded and robed offworlder is an enigmatic stranger who keeps to himself, shares nothing of his past, and goes to great pains to remain an outsider. But as tensions escalate between the farmers and a tribe of Sand People led by a ruthless war chief, Ben finds himself drawn into the fight, endangering the very mission that brought him to Tatooine.

Ben--Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, hero of the Clone Wars, traitor to the Empire, and protector of the galaxy's last hope--can no more turn his back on evil than he can reject his Jedi training. And when blood is unjustly spilled, innocent lives threatened, and a ruthless opponent unmasked, Ben has no choice but to call on the wisdom of the Jedi--and the formidable power of the Force--in his never-ending fight for justice.

  • The Republic has fallen. Sith rule the galaxy. Obi-Wan Kenobi has lost everything...

    Christina Q. - 1 year 10 months ago

    'Kenobi' is a delightful read. The Republic has fallen and Obi-Wan is left with no pieces to pick up, only a legacy he must protect. He finds himself trying to live in the Wastes, trying to live as a hermit and baby Luke's watchful protector. The people he meets in a town nearby make it hard for Obi-Wan to stick to the plan, however. As the story unfolds, it becomes more about the characters that Obi-Wan interacts with and how he gets dragged into their dramas. As he says himself, he can't seem to stop being Obi-Wan and live a simpler life as just 'Ben'. It's a fun read and despite being a Legends book (part of the old timeline) it's definitely worth reading still.

  • Obi-Wan Kenobi stars in a Western set on Tatooine's lawless frontier!

    Matt R. - 6 years ago

    With baby Luke Skywalker cradled in his arms, Obi-Wan Kenobi stops inside a remote cantina on Tatooine to inquire about directions to the Lars homestead (Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru. Remember them before they were crispy?). Finding trouble, as usual, Kenobi, lightsaber in one hand, baby in the other, dispatches with the trouble and continues in his quest to hide the Jedi's newest hope in the remote frontier of the desert planet. "Kenobi" explores Obi-Wan's exile on Tatooine, including his meditations to his old master, his need to remain anonymous, and growing tension between the homesteaders and the Sand People. This book satisfies longings that many fans have regarding Obi-Wan's character and past.
