Synopsis

Anakin and Obi-Wan are assigned to watch over the Galactic Games on Euceron (the Star Wars equivalent of the Olympics). The leaders of the planet want everything to run smoothly so that they can gain influence in the Senate. They have asked the Jedi to help keep the peace. Much to Anakin's pleasure, they discover that an illegal side game of Pod Racing is scheduled to take place. Anakin also discovers that his old rival Sebulba is there for the race. With the promise of a rematch, Anakin becomes distracted from his mission. Or is it the Force guiding him?

Meanwhile, Obi-Wan is reunited with Didi and Astri (from the Jedi Apprentice books). Astri's new husband is one of the leaders of the Games. However, it's Didi's illegal side betting that soon pulls Obi-Wan into a much more hidden danger to their mission.
