Summary: Yikes!
Review: I've been a Battlestar Galactica fan from the beginning, and I have to say I have read a lot of fan fiction (including a lot of bad fan fiction!) that's actually better and more consistent to the series than this. Richard has given us - I presume unintentionally - a kind of white male Aryan power fantasy. This book is really a mess. Go to the used bookstores and look up the older novels; even the worst ones were better. Or check out some good fan fiction.

Summary: Not bad, but too many inconsistencies
Review: It wasn't a bad book, and in many cases reminded me of the old series (assuming that Galactica: 1980 never happened, which is fine by me.) It did not surprise me that the book seemed to center around Apollo, after all, it was written by the actor that played Apollo. However, Apollo WAS one of the major characters in the series, so this is not too much of a distraction. Unfortunately, the book was plagued by inconsistencies, such as the Cylon Centurions being reptilian-cyborg hybrids (which matches the original novel, but not the television series - remember that they captured Baltar, and disassembled his pilots.) and the mis-spelling of the word "felgercarb" all through the book (but the glossary at least got it right.) Sure, I'll buy the sequel, if it ever comes out (Armageddon said 1998, but no one lists it as available yet.) I hope Hatch and cohort do a better job of keeping a tighter plot for the second book.

Summary: An excellent attempt at reviving Battlestar Galactica!!!
Review: Even though BSG came about two years before I was born, I have recently taken an interest in the series. I have found very few actors who have a talent at writing, but Hatch is definitely one of them. ARMAGEDDON was a truly excellent novel, and I look forward to Hatch's next book.

Summary: The journey continues...
Review: Not bad. Richard is a bit hung up on himself, you can tell by his character, but the Cylons are cool ... wish somebody would write a better battle sequence for the Cylons though.

Summary: What an ego trip for Richard Hatch
Review: What an awful, awful book. Richard Hatch has twisted the Galactica concept and turned his character Apollo (who he obviously sees himself as) into some sort of demi-god. The story rambles and it seems that there was some sort of secret contest the he and his co-writer had to see just how many inconsistancies and contradictions with the original television series that they could cram into each chapter.

Summary: Return of a legend. Not Campy
Review: 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.

Summary: An exciting continuation of a long-missed story.
Review: I thoroughly enjoyed reading about characters that I have missed now for many years. Richard Hatch has been able to flesh out many characters that were never really touched on in the original series. The pace was slow, at first, but this was understandable. There was a lot of background information to catch up on. I am eagerly looking foward to his next book!

Summary: Great book! Brings back old memories of the series.
Review: great book, It reminds me of the hours I used to spend us a child watching the series on the television. I hope more books will be written on the adventures of Galatica.

Summary: It was a welcome return to a series I loved.
Review: I was always disappointed with the third season of the show. This book picks up were the series should have left off. It deals with the characters that made the show popular and gives a fitting tribute to Lorne Green. I hope he writes many more novels.

Summary: Richard Hatch keep writing more
Review: great book I love that fact that he provided a glossary and also kept the storyline well in place the action and drama kept me reading on and also expanded on all the charactors and left no one out. The new class vipers are great and the new alien race they come across added more to the battlestar galatica world as readers begin to go beyond as the rag tag fugitive fleet continues its quest into new galaxies.
