Author Graig Shaw Gardner brings us a tale of the how during the years in between the Cylon wars that the Battlestar Galactica stumbled across a research station that had been run by both human and cylon. The book opens with the signal that starts the first Cylon war. Then we meet Tigh and he and Adama fight their way back to serving on the coloninal fleet. Aboard the Lighting, Tom Zarek is out in space for the first time and wants to make a name for himself. It's the Lighting that comes across Omega station first and sends down two vipers, their pilots see cylons and freak out since it's been twenty years since the war ended. The encounter ends badly causing the Lighting's captain to send Zarek and another team down. That ends badly too and they run into a dreadnought which destroys the escort viper and badly damages Zarek's craft forcing him to crash. They do get a signal out which causes the Galactica to come in. Everything goes to pot soon after and Adama finds out that someone that he once knew is the control center of the dreadnought. This is a great book and it's good to see what the Galactica was up to in the mid point between cylon wars. I highly recommend this book to all science fiction fans.
