To escape from the Cylon mainforce chasing them, the human survivors must run and run hard... but that will mean leaving a chunk of the fleet behind. Commander Adama is not prepared to make that sacrifice, despite the terrible risks. He has one chance to prove his laurels as the greatest battlestar commander in the 12 Colonies. Awesome, space-shaking space-battle action and edge of the seat tension from cosmic superstar writer Dan Abnett!
