Overview[edit]
Original Series star Richard Hatch is the author of this book.
Summary[edit]
The battlestar Galactica and the Colonial Fleet are in serious trouble. Their last encounter with the Cylons and the fierce alien race called the Chitain have left them crippled and exhausted and depleted of food and fuel. And they are still in Cylon space.
Battle with the alien Chitain fleet has cost the Colonial Fleet a terrible price. As Commander Apollo decides to take his remaining people and ships to coordinates provided by a newly discovered holocube that maps the expansion across the galaxy of the now-vanished Thirteenth Tribe of Kobol, Commander Cain ("The Living Legend") challenges both his leadership and his decision. With food, fuel, and other resources running perilously low, Cain believes the fleet must make its stand instead of risking this journey into the unknown.
Apollo may win this fight, but he may not win the battle. For the next planet indicated on the holocube is also known to the Cylons, and they are waiting for the humans in full force. It's only through the intervention of their newly installed quantum-shift technology that the fleet manages to escape the trap, as they are warped halfway across the galaxy to find themselves once again at their starting point: the planet Kobol--the birthplace of the Kobollian race that was destroyed by the Cylons twenty years ago.
It's now deserted and barren, blasted by the ancient Cylons just as viciously as the Twelve Colonies were by modern Cylons at the start of the Fleet's own 20-year journey. Before this adventure is over, Apollo's closest and lifelong friend Starbuck will lie dead. His long romance with Cain's daughter Sheba will end, because he can't let go of his dead wife Serina. His sister and colleague Athena will join with another once-staunch ally, Council President Tigh, in supporting Cain's renewed challenge for control of the Fleet, and the allied Cylon and Chitain fleets will find the Colonials again, at Kobol.
