Battlestar Galatica Armageddon
Battlestar Galatica Armageddon is one of the best books I have read in long time , this book was written by Richard Hatch and Mr Golden it contiues where the tv serial left before battlestar Galatica 1980 it starts where Starbuck has been lost , it a true Battlestar Galatica story I recommend any fan of this Tv show will love the book.
Armageddon
Excellent reading. Richard Hatch has stayed true to the original premise of Battlestar Galactica. One cannot help but empathize with the characters, old and new. As well, the plot is well developed. I cannot wait for the next book!
Return of a legend. Not Campy
I admit I was a bit skeptical at first. An actor from a defunct campy sci-fi show I loved as a child attempting to continue the voyages of the Galactica.
I bought it anyway for nostalgia's sake, and I was very pleasantly surprised. All you favorites are there, plus an introduction to a few new characters.
It was very interesting to see what has happened after all these years to the fleet, the characters, their children, Baltar, the Cylons and more. The book does a great job in bringing you up to speed, and filling in many blanks they plagued T.V. viewers so many years ago. I liked the origin explanation of the Cylons.
Also, you can see where many themes of the old testament are relevant here as they are also mixed in with Greek mythos. Those that are familar with the bible will appreciate many of the parallel's drwan here in the book.
Decent plot, begs for a sequel. The only reason this did not rate 5 stars was the lack of action in space battles. Though the battles were there, I felt as if I were missing the feel of sitting in a Viper and blasting Cylons.
Kudos to Richard Hatch and Christopher Golden.
