Book Description

Eighteen years have passed since the battlestar Galatica and its ragtag fleet of survivors began their epic journey to find the legendary planet Earth. Commander Adama has died, and the brash Colonial warrior Starbuck has disappeared during a recon patrol and is presumed dead. Confronted by a deadly force of Cylon warriors on the outside, and a rebellion led by the embodiment of evil aboard the battlestar, Apollo fights for his life, the survival of the fleet, and the ultimate fate of humanity itself.

5.0 out of 5 stars FRAK!!, July 3 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Battlestar Galactica (Hardcover)

I DID NOT HAVE HIGH HOPES FOR THESE GALACTICA BOOKS. I'M A BIG TIME BSG FAN FROM WAY BACK AND DIDN'T EXPECT ARMAGEDDON TO CAPTURE THE SPIRIT AND FUN OF THE SERIES... BUT IT DID! THE SPIRIT OF THE ORIGINAL IS ALIVE IN THIS NOVEL AND THEY'VE UPDATED THINGS TOO. THE ORIGINAL CHARACTERS HAVE GROWN OVER THE YEARS AND THERE'S NEW BLOOD ADDED WITH THE ADDITION OF NEW AND YOUNGER CHARACTERS. VERY IMPRESSIVE! ARMAGEDDON GIVE US THE BEST OF ALL POSSIBLE WORLDS.

3.0 out of 5 stars LOVED BATTLESTAR GALACTICA, THIS BOOK WAS OK, Oct 7 1999

This review is from: Battlestar Galactica (Hardcover)

I have missed the tv series Battlestar Galactica for quite some time.Thanks to Amazon.com, I have been able to view the series through the several videos offered. That is when I discovered this book. If Richard Hatch had concentrated more on the Cylons and the humans struggle with these demons, and less on his "Use the Force Apollo", this would have been a far better read. The book was also a bit immature at times. I think Richard Hatch takes himself and his character far too seriously. And yes, I will buy the next one. Why? It will hopefully continue the story and have less to do with the devil (Count Iblis) and the "Force".

This review is from: Battlestar Galactica (Hardcover)

Over the past few months I have begun watching the Battlestar Galactica televison program for the first time. I was never much of a science fiction fan and had limited access to televison while growing up. I didn't see the Battlestar Galactica televison series until my husband purchased the complete series on DVD.

I became an instant fan after Saga of a Star World. I then began reading my husbands collection of Battlestar Galactica books by Richard Hatch. Both the books and the series have flaws (what doesn't?), but they also have wonderful characters, heart, imagination, and warmth. There's a special charm to Battlestar Galactica. Watching the episodes and reading the books has been five star experience for me.
