Fabulous! A perfect understanding how the past and present can meld and grow. Obi Wan as a man is able to rise above the hurts of his past and understand them. Letting go and extending the hand of friendship, how wonderful.

This story was wonderful. I'm trying to jump-start two Anakin/Obi-wan stories myself right now, and this story was just what I needed to help me get into Obi-wan's head. Thank you so much for this wonderful glimpse into the mind of an amazing heart. I do love that Kenobi!

I really enjoyed the characterization of Yoda. He's become too much of the fortune-cookie guy in the latest movies, and not enough of the stern taskmaster.

An excellent effort.

I found both "Secrets" and "Secrets Unveiled" to be amazing stories! You're characterizations, plots, and the flow of your writing in each chapter and scene were all high quality work in my opinion. This rates right up there with some of my favorite EU stories!

Interesting plot. I thought your primary plot of Obi Wan coming to terms with himself was strong. The Anakin/Padme plot line did not convince me. I do not think that the council will know about Padme/Anakin until Epid III. Also, in Ep II we saw Anakin as a rebelous teenager . . . I would think that we would see more of Anakin coming to the point between Ep.II and Ep.III where he no longer feels he needs Obi Wan's approval . . . that Anakin's feelings of superiority will take over. That will be a critical choice that Anakin will make in going over to the dark side. You touched on it beautifully here, that one must choose the path one walks and Anakin will reject the path of obedience.
Guess I am saying overall I enjoyed it, but Anakin could have been developed more so we see that it is his maturing choices that lead him to the dark side. Overall, nicely done, enjoyable to read.

I don't buy that Obi-Wan would ever do anything to betray Qui-Gon or find himself in a situation where he would need to be "forgiven" as Anakin is. The only reason the author invented that scenario was to create a situation where Obi-Wan would want to forgive his Padawan in turn. The ending does not sit right with me. I just do not find it credible that Obi-Wan's hurt and sense of betrayal by Anakin (and Padme) would be forgiven so easily. Otherwise, the story is excellent. I found it to be well written and the interaction/discussions between the characters were intriguing.

this was a terrific story. was that all of it or is there more. i would like there to be more. i really loved the part about knowing more about obi-wan's master and how obi-wan also falls in love. i can't wait to see the movie. i think it's going to be better then any star wars movie, the best if they add the thing about obi-wan loving someone.

Quiller, this is a TERRIFIC story! I absolutely loved "Secrets", now "Secrets Unveiled" is another of my favorite Star Wars fanfics. Obi-Wan's characterization was done incredibly, you've written him exactly as the Obi-Wan we Obi-Wan fans know and love. Thanks so much! Very much looking forward to a sequel (hint hint!)

a brilliant plotline (though in secrets i didnt like obi-wan's charecterization). i like the way you expanded luminara and obi-wan's relationship. but just one thing: barriss offee, luminara's padawan, didnt die, and will be the main character in the Medstar Duology.

i really did love this story. it was written well, and stayed true to the characters. i know this is minor, but it bugged me nevertheless. i was really kind of disappointed when padme' fainted after her blaster wounds. she just seems a lot more hard-edged than that. that's just my personal opinion though and shouldn't ruin the fact that i loved the story. it was enchanting. good job.

I am in absolute awe. This has to be the BEST piece I have read so far. I loved the way it was written and the way it showed the different characters and their perception of the situation. Truly incredible!! I also thought it excellent the way you described Anakin and Padme's relationship--which I loved so much in the film, you wrote it exceptionally well.
What I found the best reading, were the small interactions between Obi-Wan and Padme. I had always hoped for that kind of friendship to be portrayed in the films. I must agree with the others--you're insight with Obi-Wan Kenobi was brilliant!! Overall, I must say I LOVED reading your story (although I hadn't read the prequel to it, I will try and find it now)and hope you will continue to write. Your story was very descriptive and very satisfying--thank you.

The sequel definitely appeals to me more than 'Secrets'. I still have some pet peeves with Padme's depiction here - I don't think she'd ever permit anyone to dictate to her the way Obi-Wan did in this story - and her constant need for his approval is also, to me, out of character. And, even though it's debatable, I agree that a woman who kept going after being maimed by a nexu should have more resilience to blaster wounds.
You definitely nailed Anakin's character and his relationship with Obi-Wan; Dooku was drawn very well - classy, scheming villian, a shade one-dimensional but I'm not a fan so who cares? And using the Melida/Daan story from the JA was inspired. The parallels drawn between the 2 kinds of betrayal was interesting.

WOW. That was amazing. Obi-Wan is my favorite character so I am worried sometimes that people will mess him up but you did a truly fantastic job. I love the way you added parts from the Jedi Apprentice series, stroke of genius. Anakins relationship with Padme was greatly defined and as was his relationship with his master. Padme seemed a little timid but other than that was awesome as well. I agree with the others, this seems like an Ep 3 script, if the script is anywhere near the caliber this is, it will be the best movie of them all.

I finally got around to reading this story, and I must say I feel rather silly for not reading it sooner. Beautifully written, and you do such a great job of writing Anakin, Padme, and Obi-Wan as complex human beings. Your portrayal of Obi-Wan was especially well done, as usual. The epilogue, where Obi-Wan extends the offer of friendship, really hit me on a deep emotional level. Reading this story was not only a great experience in and of itself, but it also heightens my anticipation for Episode III!

Again, I love your stories. So good I just had to come back and read them again. What is particularly amusing to me is that I just read those books from the Jedi Apprentice series. The ones about Melida/Daan and Obi-Wan's betrayal. I still have them from the library. Anyway, still a truly amazing story. I'm waiting on the archive to be updated so see if you've added any more. Odd, though, that it hasn't yet, TF.n is usually very prompt about updating it. Oh well...

Just want to say thank you. Wonderful story, interesting plot and the characterization is brilliant, though the second part is less impressive because of the ending: I can't believe the Counsel will act that way. But Secrets is a marvel. I've found it a year ago and was reading it all night through the day before the exam. Well, who cares about linguistics? :) The tension between Padme and Obi-Wan... Masterpiece. I was amazed. I don't write fanfics myself but I usually help a friend of mine, 'cause she always has troubles with Obi-Wan and for me it was always easy to get into his head. Funny 'cause your vision of Obi-Wan is similar to mine. George really really should have rather filmed or printed your work, it's far more talented than many of the official books. A few mistakes are nothing as compare with the whole story. I'm longing for making the translation into Russian. I hope you won't be offended if some day (a very distant day, I must say) I do it. Thanx again.

Um... this was ok, good mission. In Secrets and Secrets Unveiled, you really made it border Obidala. You made it seem that Anakin was completely forgottena nd Padme only loved his love for her. But otherwise good story. I personally dont like the Obi-wan/Padme stuff you write, but thats my own opinion. And i know this was written before episode2 where the triangle of Obi-Wan/Padme/Anakin was straightened to reveal Ani/Ami so their characters kinda seem out of place. But again, greatd escriptiona nd story.

I know a lot of people have told you that you're wrong about Barriss being dead, and it's true. But I can't stand it when someone tells someone something is wrong with a story and doesn't offer a way to fix it. So this is what I came up with. After a LOT of online research (this was beginning to bother me) I discovered that Barriss was shot and injured at the Battle Of Geonosis. She was picked up, unconscious, by another injured jedi, Pablo-Jill, who had just passed out from a slight injury. She was taken to a medcenter, and revcovered, but she was believed dead for a long time.
