Jedi Apprentice 14: The Ties That Bind

Qui-Gon is troubled by a vision of his close companion, Tahl, in great distress. He discovers that Tahl has been working on a difficult mission on the planet of New Apsolon, which he and Tahl had helped stabilize several years earlier. The royal sisters, Alani and Eritha, are in danger, but the adversaries lurk in the shadows. Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan must expose the threat, retread the past, and forge new bonds in order to save the planet and rescue Tahl.

The Ties that Bind begins a dynamic storyline featuring Qui-Gon’s blind Jedi companion, Tahl.

Six years ago, Qui-Gon Jinn and Tahl helped the people of the planet Apsolon choose their first free leader. It seemed that peace had arrived at last. Now the leader has been killed. His daughters have been kidnapped. And Qui-Gon and Tahl have returned to Apsolon with Qui-Gon's apprentice Obi-Wan—against the wishes of the Jedi Council. The ties that bind Qui-Gon and Tahl are about to experience their most powerful test yet.
