The book is about Mace searching for his former Padawan, Depa Biliba. The book really delves into Mace finding out that the true definition of war and suffering. Great read if you have the time, and want to see just why he is one of the most feared men of the Old Republic. By the way, even though I haven't read it yet, I thought Cestus Deception featured Obi-Wan and Kit Fitso, not Obi-Wan and Anakin, in which they try to stop a planet from selling bio-technology bearing droids to the Separtists?
