A couple of years after the end of the reimagined series, I wrote and self-published the Lords of Kobol series of books. People seemed to like it quite a bit, so I spent years working on Colonies of Kobol to bridge the gap between them and the TV shows. Three massive volumes were published last year, but I’ve now given them the “special edition” treatment, creating additional content and writing an author’s commentary. Via the commentary, I discuss connections to the TV shows, historical/mythological inspirations, share art and pics I made for myself during the writing, and so on. Most importantly, all three volumes are now in one and in chronological order.

Here’s the official description:

Visit the sixteen Colonies of Kobol in a single volume …

Two thousand years before the Cylons destroyed the Twelve Colonies and the Battlestar Galactica led a ragtag fleet to Earth, the Lords of Kobol fell and mankind fled for the Colonies.

See the settling of the first colony on Gemenon. Behold the destruction of Earth and the flight of the Final Five. Witness the rise of empires on Virgon and Leonis and the thousand-year-war waged across the plains of Tauron, the seas of Picon, and the mountains of Sagittaron. Visit the jungles of Libran and Scorpia, the mines of Canceron, the farms of Aerilon, and the volcanoes of Aquaria. Read the continuation of the short-lived TV series Caprica and watch the horrors of the Cylon War and the creation of The Colony. Revisit New Caprica and then, on our own world, go on one last journey with Bill Adama and Saul Tigh, and get a look into our own future as the Messengers of The One True God work to free mankind of the cycle.

This is the definitive special edition collection of these books in chronological order, complete with additional chapters, behind-the-scenes information, art, pics, and author’s commentary. Learn all about the writing of these tales, connections to the Battlestar Galactica and Caprica TV shows, and much more.

There is a Plan and questions will be answered.

The book is free and it is currently available here. As the book filters out to other apps and stores, I will update its page on my personal site.

Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoy it.
