6 stars: Enjoyed parts of it
From the back cover: The war that erupted in Attack of the Clones is nearing its boiling point. In Revenge of the Sith, the fates of key players on both sides of the conflict will be sealed. But first, crucial events that pave the way to that time of reckoning unfold in a labyrinth of evil.
On the planet Neimoidia, Jedi Knights Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker set out to capture a treacherous ally of the Sith. Though they come up empty, their daring efforts yield an unexpected prize: intelligence capable of leading the Republic forces to their ultimate quarry: the ever - elusive Darth Sidious, whom they suspect has been manipulating every aspect of the Separatist rebellion. In the escalating galaxy wide chess game of sabotage and retaliations, Sidious stays one move ahead. Then the trail takes a shocking turn. For Sidious and his minions have set in motion a ruthlessly orchestrated campaign to divide and overwhelm the Jedi forces and bring the Republic to its knees.

This book covers the mission immediately prior to Revenge of the Sith. I wanted to like it more than I did, but I really just found it ok and fairly forgettable. Not much to review. It is worthy to keep and remember, as it shows Anakin's trajectory.
A quote I liked: "I never claimed to be the chosen one. That was Qui-Gon. Even the Council doesn't believe it anymore, so why should you?"
"Because I think you believe it" Obi-Wan said calmly. "I think you know in your heart that you're meant for something extraordinary."
"And you, Master? What does your heart tell you you're meant for?"
"Infinite sadness" Obi-Wan said, even while smiling.
