Reason for Recommending This is a great tale that explores Obi-Wan's coming of age, dealing with his Jedi life but mixed with a heavy sprinkling of the normal problems that occur between teenage boys and their guardians during adolecence. Misunderstandings, miscommunications, manipulations, tempers and hurt feelings abound, as Obi-Wan attempts to prove that he's grown up. A wonderful long read, one that you can easily get wrapped up in.

Quote from the story Obi-Wan yawned, then leaned back in his chair and stretched, feeling bones pop. He glanced at the library wallchrono, then began gathering his datapadds. The study session had started late and was running longer now that their astrophysics instructor had started giving a full load of homework.

"Time for me to head back," he said to the rest of the study group.

"Oh, come on, it's not that late and we've still got four more problems to go over."

Obi-Wan grinned as he stuffed the last of his notes into his bag, "Hey, gotta be back before curfew, you know."

"You've still got a curfew this early? I don't have to be back for another two hours," said Leenro, a felinoid Padawan from the Astrophysics class. He was echoed by several others who had later curfews.

"I'm sorry, Obi-Wan. I didn't realize that your Master keeps you on such a short leash, I guess. I haven't had a curfew since I was seventeen and you know my Master let me have my own quarters when I turned eighteen," added Stravan.
