Delve into the history of the sinister Count Dooku in the original script to the thrilling Star Wars audio production!
Darth Tyranus. Count of Serenno. Leader of the Separatists. A red saber, unsheathed in the dark. But who was he before he became the right hand of the Sith? As Dooku courts a new apprentice, the hidden truth of the Sith Lord's past begins to come to light.
Dooku's life began as one of privilege - born within the stony walls of his family's estate, orbited by the Funeral Moon where the bones of his ancestors lie interred. But soon, his Jedi abilities are recognized, and he is taken from his home to be trained in the ways of the Force by the legendary Master Yoda.
As he hones his power, Dooku rises through the ranks, befriending fellow Jedi Sifo-Dyas and taking a Padawan of his own, the promising Qui-Gon Jinn - and tries to forget the life that he once led. But he finds himself drawn by a strange fascination with the Jedi Master Lene Kostana, and the mission she undertakes for the Order: finding and studying ancient relics of the Sith, in preparation for the eventual return of the deadliest enemies the Jedi have ever faced.
Caught between the world of the Jedi, the ancient responsibilities of his lost home, and the alluring power of the relics, Dooku struggles to stay in the light - even as the darkness begins to fall.

This is the prequel to the Master & Apprentice some of the passages on this book fit in perfectly with the Qui Gon and Dooku, or the parts with Real.
I am not a fan of the watered down more politically motivated Jedi of the Disney era of Star Wars. So this made me empathise with Dooku's disillusionment with the Jedi of around him. They say the road to hell is paved with good intentions, this is definitely true in this book. We see Dooku with the best of intentions stepping closer and closer to the dark side.
I am a reminded a bit of the Smallville series. As much I as never liked that series, I did like Lex and even though I knew he was going to turn evil, I kept hoping it would not happen. This is similar here I knew Dooku's destiny but I like the character I did hope it would not happen.
If I had one complaint about this book it is I did not see the exact moment that Dooku fully turned. We see the meeting with Palpetine but not the final corruption. In fact the penultimate chapter was Dooku's most heroic moment.
This is a great book and history of a great character. I was not even a huge Dooku fan at the start of this book, but the story is awsome and really does the character justice.
It features horrible, lazy first person writing (the hallmark of amateurs). It's mostly from the point of view of Asajj Ventress, whose backstory we already know from the Clone Wars TV series and from another novel, 'Dark Disciple'.
I haven't been this disappointed since famed novelist JK Rowling released 'The Cursed Child' as a screenplay.
Claudia Gray's 'Master and Apprentice' is a brilliant work, with a captivating story. This however, was a highly imaginative and creative tale completely ruined by the absolutely bizarre choice of prose by Cavan Scott.
Write a proper novel, and advertise it as such. Do not write a half first person biography, half script, mash it together and inflict it upon the unsuspecting readers. I want my money back, and I'm staying well clear of anything Cavan Scott's pen touches again.
If the book had been written in the usual proper format, I suspect it would only have been about a third in length.
It's a shame, as the short storyline was good as far as getting to know the early life of Dooku and what happened in his life to cause him to leave the Jedi, but it could have been expanded to so much more.
That doesn't detract a thrilling story that gives background to Dooku, Sifo-Dyas and Qui-Gon Jinn... great read for fans of the prequels. More Dooku is never a bad thing.
I had a great time and read genuinely in one LONG sitting. Particularly fun for fans of the prequels or Clone Wars show but watching the latter is not needed. I haven't at time of writing and followed the story well.
