Travis had been fully prepared to leave, to return to his ship, blast off, and report back to Servalan that the trip had been a pointless waste of time. He didn’t want to hear talk of lost gods, telepathic guardians, intergalactic foes or anything of the kind. Travis dealt with the actual, the physical; things he could see and hear and touch.
But then the old man had offered to show him proof...
What led Space Commander Travis to become an outlaw from the Federation and eventually betray the entire galaxy to an alien invasion fleet?
Follow his deadly journey, from the first fateful meeting with Blake, through the agonising reconstructive surgery that shapes his mind as well as his body, his growing distrust of Servalan and to a final realisation of what the Federation really stands for.

First, Trevor Baxendale and Stephen Greif together… YES PLEASE! Get pairing. Very sad that Greif has passed away.
Book was excellently voiced, and the scenes were compelling! My own hesitation is that you really have to know your Blakes 7 history to follow it. It’s not really one straightforward story. The story dips in and out throughout many B7 stories, tell tales of Travis in between episodes. There is a running plot, but it’s really used to fill in a lot of his backstory (how he lost his eye, etc).
Recommended! Just be ready for lots of references to episodes and characters.
