Richard Lawrence Hatch was an American actor, writer, and producer best known for his role as Captain Apollo in the original Battlestar Galactica (1978-1979) television series, and also as Tom Zarek in the 2003 re-imagining of Battlestar Galactica. He passed away from Pancreatic Cancer on February 7, 2017.
Chris - Wow, this collaboration of Richard Hatch (who played Apollo) and Alan Rodgers brings forth the worst of what I remember about Battlestar. I've met Richard, and think he's a good guy, but his relationship with his writer is not as good as William Shatner's relationship with his ghost writers. Too bad, I was hoping to enjoy it.
Ugghh. I kept waiting for an explanation for why all the characters were acting like hormonal emotionally unstable teenagers but none ever came. The plot was okay but not great. I'm really hoping the last three novels are better than this one.
