    Quest,

    Didn't Leland's recent event list indicate that Boba #5 and 6 take place sometime during the Obsession series?

    In my Timeline I have Boba #5 and 6 after Obsession 3 and before Obsession 4...

    I thought the preview was really good. This is the first real Anakin/Padme in the EU and the writer did a good job.

    I don't know how the hell Obi-Wan didn't realize there was something more going on between Anakin and Padme. The Jedi possess a legendary denseness in the prequels but still, it's right in front of his face. I guess obsession leads to stupidity. ;) Although I will say, I can definitely see Anakin being upset with Obi-Wan for dragging him away from Padme.

    Once Obsession has been released in it's entirety, I think we'll have a better idea of where the BF books fit. Blackman's no slouch, I wouldn't be surprised to see something along the lines of, "Anakin, go to Xagobah to help Master Glyn-Beti while I continue the search."

    Or perhaps the Outer Rim Sieges begin and Obi-Wan and Anakin have to go after their duties again. Then Anakin encounters Ventress again in BF 6 and they go after Ventress again (the battle in Obsession might also relate to the Outer Rim Siegs).
    And yeah, i like these Anakin/Padme scenes too :).

    Yeah, the BF series is supposed to overlap with Obsession, but until we know how Obsession plays out, it's hard to say.

    At this point, I think a safe "fallback" position would be just before DOR, but if it can fit in the midst of Obsession, then that would be optimal.

    No one said he doesn't know...

    He's got to know. There's just a staggering amount of circumstantial evidence. Perhaps though, the idea that they're actually in love, is too much for him to handle. Then again, short of catching Anakin wearing a wedding ring... it's really rather obvious.

    But yes, various Jedi who have committed indescretions seem to be forgiven, perhaps for the greater good of the war? Will they let Anakin slide because he's so important?

    If this is 5 months prior, she should be beginning to show, especially with twins (and in those slinky gowns of hers). Though it seems like she's being stragetically drawn to not show her middle.

    Upon reflection, I'd like to consolidate everything into the main Obsession thread.
