Ron,
The book goes into really good detail about Dooku and the fight between him and Anakin. Palpy is a master planner and master manipulator............he manipulated Anakin from when he was a small bpy. Remeber in TPM he said "we will watch your career with great intrest" to Anakin? He does set up his own kidnap as a way to open Anakin up to the dark side..........that is why he uses the information Anakin had told him about the sand people against him, and tells Anakin to kill Dooku. And then justifies it by tell him "it was only natural, you wanted vengence".........just like the sand people.........he uses everything(Palpy) It would have been interesting to see what Palpy was like as a child, Lucas made it a point to show Anakin was a good kid went very wrong. Palpy, I think was always very evil.
Ron, if you ever wanna talk Star Wars...................I am the sweek for the job
