Dooku was such an interesting character that I honestly feel bad whenever I remember Anakin killing him. I know he deserved it for the horrible things he had done and Palpatine causing this to happen was really smart, but still
This entire scene of the duel between Obi-Wan, Anakin and Dooku in front of Palpatine was my favorite part of the book. It describes in eloquent detail how all 4 players in the room show up in the force. Obi-Wan as pure light-side, Dooku in the dark side and Palpatine as a black hole somehow hiding his presence from the Jedi...then Anakin as a storm, not yet light or dark...
It follows Dooku's point of view and his surprise at how strong Anakin was and his shock when Palpatine pushes Anakin to kill him. The entire scene is so surreal to me.
I've developed a much greater appreciation of Count Dooku as a character as I've grown up. He's the one Sith in the films who's driven by his own principles and beliefs, not just raw hate and greed. He has conviction and displays civility even when facing his enemies.
