In her second Star Wars book, Clone Wars Gambit: Stealth, every character has a lot to shoulder in the war, even (and especially) Obi-Wan. She cares for his well-being and has learned how to read her Master’s emotions to help herself navigate and deal with his temperament. But these two novels were good and I liked the variety of characters. I like getting Sidious and the dark characters' points of view along with the good.

Clone Wars Gambit: Stealth, Miller’s second Star Wars novel, is set between the second and third episode and still sees the Republic at open war with the Separatist Alliance, the anonymous gaggle of poorly realised alien races whose motives we failed to fully understand in Episode I. Ahsoka, who gets relegated to a secondary storyline in the book’s second half, is also enjoyably boisterous company (see: is nothing like Jake Lloyd), however it is Bail Organa who benefits most from additional exposition.

I was thoroughly impressed with Karen Miller's depth of characterization in her debut Star Wars novel Wild Space. However, I found the portion of the story featuring Obi-Wan Kenobi and Bail Organa endlessly slogging through space and then across the surface of Zigoola drawn-out and rather tedious. So I was curious to see if Ms. Miller would be able to build upon her strong portrayal of the film characters while reducing the repetitiveness in her follow-up novels, the Clone Wars Gambit duology.

For my taste, she succeeded. Although making this story a two-parter does cause things to drag out too long, the pace is brisker and she shines in the multitude of scenes highlighting Obi-Wan and Anakin Skywalker's relationship and viewpoints. Rarely has the Expanded Universe (or arguably the films themselves) made these two seem like close friends, the "brothers" that Obi-Wan speaks of on the Mustafar lava ridge. Ms. Miller devotes a great deal of space to the emotions, beliefs, insights, and personalities these two developed over the years together, and since they are so central to the entire saga, the focus on the duo is worthwhile.

Lok Durd returns from his Clone Wars first season two-parter as the primary adversary. This Durd is considerably more diabolical than what we saw on the cartoon: sure, he PLANNED to wipe out entire species with his doomsday weapon, but we didn't actually see that happen. The Durd of Clone Wars Gambit is a loathsome, malevolent, vile creature, delighting in pain and suffering. He makes a good villain but I did get weary of his scenes about halfway through the story.

Clone Wars Gambit: Stealth is a very solid if somewhat overblown set-up for the conclusion in book two. If you are more interested in the action-packed galactic space opera side of Star Wars, these books probably won't be a great pick, but if you're intrigued by a more emotions-centered exploration of two primary Star Wars characters along with some nice sequences from the supporting cast, give this one a try.

This is a good book in the Clone Wars series. The characters seem more vivid than usual, and the story is really decent.

Great work.

Couldnt get through it. I dont know why.

I love so many of the Star Wars clone books. I love everything Star Wars. I just could not get through it. I thought it was boring and really drawn out. It was like the editor told her: Obi Wan and Anakin have a six month time line that we need to fill, so write a story that takes up this gap in their Star Wars history.

It was like she tried to write about something that she knew nothing about. It was like a student who tried to write about a topic who did not research on the topic. And then the teacher reads the paper and is like: Wow, this paper tells me nothing and can be summed up in a sentence.

Dont read, save your money.

I am a huge Star Wars fan. I love reading the continuing journeys of the characters in the Star Wars Universe and am always excited when a new series comes out.

Its good to share your feelings isn't it.
Good to get anything unsaid out there for people to hear. It also helps to deal with them and put them behind you, turn from the dark side as it were.
Except, wait, Anakin never did deal with his feelings did he. Thats how he lost himself to the dark side after all. Anakin never faced the things he did and his experiences and used his jedi training to deal with his anger.
If only he'd expressed his feelings LIKE HE DOES HERE ON EVERY SINGLE PAGE.

And Obi-Wan also deals with an inner anger and on nearly every page.
A trained jedi you only raised his voice a few times in the prequels here is angry with every single person
he comes in contact with but its okay he keeps it inside.....sometimes.
This is completely different from the Obi-Wan I know from the series and books.
Except, wait, according to Clone Wars: Wild Space he knows all about Anakin and Padme,warns Padme off a relationship with Anakin AND THEN TOTALLY MISSES ANAKING AND PADME HAVING A RELATIONSHIP FOR THREE YEARS.

Pros:
- There's a battle at the start.
- A scientist who feels guilt over what she's doing.
- Some great writing in the preparation of the trip (to planet boring).
- Some interesting thoughts from Ashoka.

Cons:
- Obi-Wan and Anakin talk about there feelings so much they actually tell each other to stop talking about there feelings, which is what I was doing.
- Obi-Wan, in the middle of keeping back more rage then a darkside lunatic, says "Oh Anakin" on practically every other page. And than screams whatever his latest bizzare opinion is.
- There are some very adult elements here, a woman getting pulled up by her hair, getting kicked while on the ground, elements of torture, suicide. I am reading this book for fun you know, if I wanted to be depressed I'd read the paper.
- Why is this story in two books?? IF YOU CUT OUT THE GROUP THERAPY IT'D BE FINISHED ALREADY!!!!

Some Tips:
- I can't say all the 90's star wars books were great, but rogue squadron, Thrawn, luke and the gang had lots more action and events without all these feelings and repressed anger. So less feelings, more action.
- Less Obi-Wan acting like a spoiled kid.
- Its not clear which Clone Wars episode Durd was in, before reading "Anakin almost died" I nearly had to look it up, so throw that in.

But thats just my opinion, if your alright with people expressing their pain alot this book should be fine.
But Han Solo took Chewies death better then these folks take minor plans going array.

Karen Miller is a superb author that managed to keep me engaged throughout. This is a character driven story that is written very well. It follows our two most beloved hero's through a tragedy and hardship, and Karen Miller does an excellent job of describing that hardship in some very artful words. It's wonderful, but you have to understand that it's character driven and has a wonderful plot that doesn't have a lot of action. It's fantastic though. I recommend it if you prefer cinematic character driven stories. Her personification of Yoda is spot on!
