Obi-Wan Thwarts Anakin's Joy Ride in 'Star Wars - Padawan's Pride' Sneak Peek [Exclusive]

Anakin and Obi-Wan

Gather the whole family and fire up your podracer, because Audible has a thrilling new adventure for Star Wars fans following Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker. The audiobook service has unveiled a new story titled Star Wars: Padawan's Pride, set to explore the dangerous and cutthroat underground world of podracing through the Jedi master and his young Padawan three years after the events of Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace.

The clip opens with Anakin evading civilian transports and navigating tunnels to reach the vastness of space above Coruscant all while Kenobi was, supposedly, asleep. Determined to enjoy his freedom away from his master, he comes oh so close to having the vast reaches of space at his fingertips until the comms come to life and Obi-Wan's voice rings through.

Authored by Bryan Q. Miller — best known for his work on DC Comics' Batgirl and Teen Titans and The CW's Smallville — in partnership with Disney Lucasfilm Press, Padawan's Pride is all about Anakin's journey to maturity under Kenobi while on their dangerous galactic adventure. Their goal is to infiltrate a podracing circuit run by a Varl crime lord suspected of keeping the Rebel spy as his prisoner.

'Star Wars: Padawan's Pride' Fleshes Out the Prequel Era The Star Wars canon has demonstrated time and again the layers of Anakin Skywalker as he grows into a powerful Jedi whose fears are twisted by Palpatine for a darker purpose.

Star Wars: Padawan's Pride is available to access through Audible now for $16 individually or for free with a subscription. It's one of several offerings the service has on the service, alongside the two Star Wars: Adventures in Wild Space collections and the Star Wars Storybook Collection full of stories from the original and prequel trilogies.
