Lords of Kobol - Prelude: Of Gods and Titans
The universe of "Battlestar Galactica" and "Caprica" has gotten larger and the story of the "Lords of Kobol" isn't over yet.
In "Book One," we saw the gods in their golden age. In "Book Two," we learned of their coming to Kobol. In "Book Three," their dominion ended and mankind fled their presence. Here, in "Book Five," we find them at their creation, the children of Titans.
Zeus and the Olympians are just one part of a world populated by Cronus and his brethren, a Caesar bent on power and longer life, and metal Cyclops who cast off their shackles in the name of freedom. And unknown to any of them, The One True God and its Messengers seek to preserve humanity in the face of doom.
This is the stunning prequel to all that has happened before and all that will happen again. There is a Plan and questions will be answered.

This was the best of the series. It fit perfectly into the first three books but it did something more than they could have ever accomplished in the other three. It gave life to the world from which Kobol was built. It showed why the Olympians did what the did in the first three. It showed relationships that were layered over time with love and hatred.
This is the first book in a long time that has wrapped me up in the story to the point that I am truly sad I finished it. This series is a must read and this book above all shines bright. I would recommend the Lords of Kobol series to anyone whether they are a fan of Battlestar Galactica or not. It is just an outstanding series.

Absolutely smashing read.
Truly rounded out the origins of the cylons and wonderfully portrayed the human cycle of rises and falls...all this has happened before and will happen again.
