From AudioFile

Jonathan Davis uses a breathless style in the second audiobook set in the universe of "Battlestar Galactica." Unlike some other science fiction media tie-ins, this audiobook does not use music and sound effects throughout, choosing instead to depend solely on the narrator. Though the story does not match the intensity of the television series, Davis heightens the suspense with his flawless delivery of action scene after action scene. He understands the significance of events to the characters, who are all dramatically characterized with believable emotion. Fans of the show should enjoy this prequel because it offers back story of some of the main characters.

Review

Praise for the Battlestar Galactica TV series:
 
"This story of enemies within is dead serious, and seriously good."
—James Poniewozik, Time Magazine

"It's all been said before, but I'll say it again: Battlestar Galactica is much, much better than you can possibly imagine. The battle scenes are claustrophobic and paranoia-inducing; the power struggles are complicated and nuanced like the ones you find on "The Sopranos;" the stakes are always high, and there's an incredible amount of action in each episode."
—salon.com

“An intensely suspenseful journey of survival … gripping, scary, and well worth staying home on Fridays to watch … TV’s most provocative fantasy adventure …”
—TV Guide “Roush Rave”

"Rapidly shaping up to be the most influential Science Fiction series since Babylon 5 and the original Star Trek."
TV Zone magazine

"Serious and sexy, Battlestar Galactica is the best sci fi on TV."
CFQ (Cinefantastique)

“…this Battlestar is smart enough and entertaining enough to win you over.”
—Robert Bianco, USA Today

“With its hot, androgynous heroine leading the remnants of humanity against evil, God-fearing robots, Battlestar Galactica is boldy re-creating sci-fi TV.”
—salon.com

"Galactica is back, better than ever . . . You don't have to love sci-fi to love Battlestar Galactica. . . a great TV series."
—USA Today

2.0étoiles sur 5 The Cylons' secret is that Craig Shaw Gardner can't write, Sep 16 2006
Par Paul E. Mallet - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
In this original novel, Craig Shaw Gardner tells a tale set 20 years after the end of the Cylon War. This is the story of a young Colonel William Adama, second in charge of the Battlestar Galactica, and Saul Tigh, on a mission to explore the fringes of known space and reclaim for the Colonies previously abandoned territories. Although an armistice is in effect, and annual meetings are scheduled so that humans and Cylon can engage in peaceful negotiations, the Cylons have not been seen since the War's end, or so everybody thought, until now.

The story begins with a flashback to the moment the original Cylon War began, which marks the point where this novel begins to disappoint with its absurdity. As a huge fan of Sci-Fi channel's newly imagined Battlestar Galactica series, I had high expectations for this original novel. Not because I am a sci-fi fanatic, but because Galactica is the first television programme in a long time to be written for an audience with an IQ above that of a sewer rat and the memory span of a mosquito. This novel, however, falls well short of the standard set by Ron Moore and David Eick. Unlike the brilliant television series, the writing is disengaging, disingenuous, and predictable. In a bizarre reversal, the television characters have shrunk to become two-dimensional and uninteresting. Unlike the series, the plot is accidentally comical, totally unbelievable, and completely disengaging.

If you love Sci-Fi's gripping, sexy, intelligent and mesmerizing Battlestar Galactica, then do yourself a favour and stay away from these 302 pages of tripe. If you hope to gain some insight into the minds of Bill Adama, Saul Tigh, or Tom Zarek, or if you were hoping to find out what led the Cylons to unleash the apocalypse on their unsuspecting creators, you won't find it here. As much as I love the new Galactica series, I won't be buying the next instalment by Craig Shaw Gardner. Craig, you sure know how to kill a good story.
