Everyone cool if I just shorten the title to ” Dark Rendezvous” ? Yes ! Alrighty then , ” Dark Rendezvous” by Sean Stewart is a science fiction novel set in the ” Star Wars” universe inbetween ” Attack of the Clones” and “Revenge of the Sith ” . It was originally published in 2004 , the edition I’m reading is a paperback and has 329 pages .

This novel follows Yoda and a small group of Jedi as they go to meet Count Dooku and try to bring him back to the light . Along the way is murder , Asajj Ventress , lightsaber dueling competition , a prophecy fulfilled , and even some guest appearances from Anakin and Obi-Wan .

If you were curious about the relationship between Yoda and Count Dooku then this is the book for you . The author manages to get every side of Yoda in this book from wise grandmaster to cranky old man to the playful jokester and even the duelist . A fun book for casual ” Star Wars ” fans and a must read for Yoda/ Count Dooku super fans . Have a nice day and may the force be with you !
