This is the third volume of the Dynamite comics on BSG that I read. Once more I'm really satisfied with the book, and only a couple of flaws prevented the fifth star to shine.

Apart from those glitches (and something risky like introducing an officer called Tigh who is reffered to as "old drunkard"), the story is well written and has deep roots in the Cylon mithology. Moreover I really appreciated the pseudo-code that is used for Isak's thoughts and the logic that drives Cylons to the first armistice. The artists' work is very nice and, at the same time, leaves some bits to the reader's imagination.
