Yes! Obi-Wan and Anakin communicated last book!

That sets the stage for this book, in which they are actually in sync! There's plenty of undercover insanity. Also, we get Siri and Ferus, and we get to actually look at Ferus's personality. I must tell you that he is my own dear child whom I love. And he's right.

He was right in this book, when everybody else was wrong. He spoke to Obi-Wan in confidence about what he fears for Anakin, and he was right. *tears open button-up to reveal FERUS WAS RIGHT T-shirt underneath*
