Obi-Wan Kenobi and his apprentice, Anakin Skywalker, set out to find an unknown adversary with plans to destroy the Republic, hindered by their enemy's wealth, connections, and ability to remain hidden.

The Master of Disguise

I feel like these books (both the Jedi Apprentice series and the Jedi Quest series) just prove that the Jedi don't know how to teach children/teens in a healthy manner. The way that Soara just refused to continue teaching Anakin after he used anger when fighting Ferus was so frustrating. You don't just label a child a failure and a danger after you see them fuck up once. Like no wonder Anakin was such a hot mess in AotC if this is how he's being taught to manage his emotions and how adults are responding to his missteps. I've always hated the fact that Jedi only accept toddlers, because it means not a single one of them learned how to handle and respond to personal injustices and difficulties as opposed to more impersonal social injustices that don't involve them. Basically, Anakin was done dirty and the Order straight up set him up to fail because they were too rigid and narrow-minded in their teaching.
