It talks about the fate of Anakin Skywalker. I thought it was a good and detailed book. It gets right to the point.

"Anakin's Fate" is a story about what happens to the slave boy before he meets Padme and the Jedi. The official prequel novels all have about a third of additional story that never made it onto the silver screen. Terry Brooks' "Phantom Menace" is no exception as there is a great deal of time and energy spent on Tatooine with 'Annie' long before his destiny intersects with Qui-Gon Jinn. "Anakin's Fate" is closely based on some of these events that happen long before the Nubian blockade. In this part of Anakin's life, we experience the podrace that he and Watto allude to in Episode I: "he smashed up my pod in the last race." The reader also spends time with Kitster, the Jawas and space pilots. Marc Cerasini beautifully flushes out Anakin's character. The Jedi Readers can be a mixed bag in terms of quality and this one is surprisingly well written. Until readers advance enough to handle the Terry Brooks novel, "Anakin's Fate" is a great title to read prior to watching "the Phantom Menace."

It was AMAZING!!!! ESPECIALLY when Anakin dreamed about wining the podrace. Watto is EXTREMELY mean and selfish!!!!!!!!

When he sent Anakin to Mochat Steep.

He could have bought them, but he was too cheap. This is the best book I have ever READ.

My 4 year old loves to have these books read to him. Before I introduced these books to him he was at a much simpler level of book, but his interest - because of the droids (robots) has helped him grow into these. My 7 year old devours them by reading them to himself and to his brother.
