Star Wars: Master & Apprentice

內容簡介

內容簡介 星際大戰系列 官方小說 從《星際大戰首部曲：威脅潛伏》前七年開始講起一個絕地武士必須勇敢無所畏懼、誓死捍衛正義、熟悉原力的使用，除此之外，成功的絕地武士還必須知道如何將所學傳遞給下一代，如同尤達大師教導杜庫，杜庫教導魁剛，現在魁剛也有了自己的學徒歐比王，但現在魁剛面臨了前所未有的挑戰，更是憂慮無法帶好學徒。歐比王非常尊敬魁剛，但卻無法真正理解他。他無法理解魁剛為何常常不認同絕地武士的規範，為何對於古老的絕地武士哲學更著迷，而不是現代更實用的方法，為何收到了加入絕地議會的邀請卻不跟歐比王說？是否這就代表師徒關係的結束？重重問題困擾著歐比王，而這背後可能的原因更是讓他恐懼：魁剛不滿意這個學徒。兩人收到了一項任務，但看似簡單的任務內容不知不覺中又因魁剛的預視變了調，魁剛對於古老哲學的信仰越來越堅固，歐比王對於魁剛的信任卻同時受到測試，這一對師徒究竟是可以突破難關？還是就此分離？A Jedi must be a fearless warrior, a guardian of justice, and a scholar in the ways of the Force. But perhaps a Jedi's most essential duty is to pass on what they have learned. Master Yoda trained Dooku; Dooku trained Qui-Gon Jinn; and now Qui-Gon has a Padawan of his own. But while Qui-Gon has faced all manner of threats and danger as a Jedi, nothing has ever scared him like the thought of failing his apprentice. Obi-Wan Kenobi has deep respect for his Master, but struggles to understand him. Why must Qui-Gon so often disregard the laws that bind the Jedi? Why is Qui-Gon drawn to ancient Jedi prophecies instead of more practical concerns? And why wasn't Obi-Wan told that Qui-Gon is considering an invitation to join the Jedi Council—knowing it would mean the end of their partnership? The simple answer scares him: Obi-Wan has failed his Master.When Jedi Rael Averross, another former student of Dooku, requests their assistance with a political dispute, Jinn and Kenobi travel to the royal court of Pijal for what may be their final mission together. What should be a simple assignment quickly becomes clouded by deceit, and by visions of violent disaster that take hold in Qui-Gon's mind. As Qui-Gon's faith in prophecy grows, Obi-Wan's faith in him is tested—just as a threat surfaces that will demand that Master and apprentice come together as never before, or be divided forever.
