In the aftermath of the Galactic War, everything has changed for Blake’s former associates. Having lost their leader, they are forced to work with new allies - people they can’t trust. And that may just get all of them killed.
Outpost by Christopher Cooper
Tarrant and Vila are on a mission to the abandoned outpost Clivian 410B when a Federation taskforce attacks. The wary crewmates must learn to work together if they stand any chance of staying alive.
Close Enough by Sophia McDougall
When the crew of the Liberator are lured into a trap, it’s Avon’s life - and the freedom of the galaxy - that hang in the balance, while Cally regains something she thought she had lost forever.
Solus by George Mann
When the Liberator responds to a distress call from the Solus research station, Avon is hoping to find something valuable he can salvage. Instead, he finds only one survivor amongst the wreckage: President Servalan.

Cuatro historias ambientadas a inicios de la tercera temporada, después de la guerra alienígena contra la federación y con la habitual calidad de las producciones de Big Finish: en "Liberation" Dayna (interpretada de manera muy acertada por Jasmine Bannerman, ya que Josette Simon no quiso volver) y Tarrant aprenden a colaborar en medio de una revuelta en un antiguo planeta de la federación. "Outpost" trata sobre Tarrant y Vila intentando sobrevivir en una colonia pirata a la que han ido a buscar un banco de datos robado, con un antigua novia de Vila haciéndoles la vida imposible. "Close Enough" tiene una gran premisa; Avon es sometido a una operación contra su voluntad que le hace desarrollar telepatía, algo que Cally intentará solucionar. Finalmente, "Solus", la mejor historia de todas reúne a todo el cast junto a Servalan (Jacqueline Pearce, enorme como siempre) en busca de un artefacto alienígena que permite copiar la mente de la glamurosa presidenta de la federación en los ordenadores de la Liberator, anulando a Zen y convirtiendo la nave en un peligro para todos, incluso para la Servalan original. Un trabajo excelente y que sigue, por suerte, manteniendo a los fans de la serie clásica como yo bien entretenidos.
