Fantasy adventure meets intergalactic battle for Apollo in this great cover to the fourth book in the original Battlestar Galactica book series from Berkley Books, expanding the charming 1978/79 tale by Donald Bellisario, Frank Lupo and Paul Playdon of The Young Warriors, by Glen A. Larson and Robert Thurston.
