Reviews

[Bookwraiths · Rating 3 out of 5]

Entertaining collection. Good art, solid story, and enough action and intrigue to keep me turning pages. But what I especially liked was the feel good, swashbuckling feel of the story, which captured what was special about the original BSG.

Things are classic for a reason. A return to the style and sense of the original series puts the lie to any argument that the reimagined world was better.
