Background on Qui-Gon Jinn

I'm a newbie here and have done a search on "Qui-Gon Jinn," but can't seem to find an answer to my question in all the messages I've slogged through! I hope someone here can help!

I'm looking for a book that contains background on Qui-Gon Jinn's life. If same exists, I know one of you people know which one it is! I've searched Amazon, etc., but keep coming up with zilch. If no such book exists, can anyone tell me which is the first book to reference Qui-Gon Jinn?

Thanks!

Thanks, I knew I could get some help here!! 🙂 I did discover the Jedi Apprentice and Dark Apprentice books on Amazon, but there were no details as to what they contained. I understand Jedi Apprentice books are geared to children? That's perfect, actually, as I wanted to read them to my 6 year old son! Thanks again!

The Jedi Apprentice books are geared towards children, as are Legacy of the Jedi and Secrets of the Jedi, but I find them perfectly good reads myself, and I'm far from being a child.

Oh, I have nothing against reading children's books -- I'm a Harry Potter fan myself! 😉
