Pursued by the inhuman warriors of the Cylon Empire, a ragtag fleet spaceships -- containing the last remnants of humanity -- are led across the cosmos by Commander Apollo and the crew of the battlestar Galactica in search of an earlier home of humanity, a place of legend. A place called Earth.

The battlestar Galactica and the colonial fleet are in serious trouble. Their last encounter with the Cylons and the fierce alien race called the Chitain have left them crippled and exhausted and depleted of food and fuel. And they are still in Cylon space.
But Commander Apollo's next confrontation is with one of his own, as grizzled war veteran Commander Cain challenges him for leadership. Apollo wants to take the remnants of the fleet to a planet indicated on the mysterious holocube that was discovered on an abandoned Cylon outpost--a holocube that purportedly shows the path of expansion and exploration through the galaxy by the vanished Thirteenth Tribe. Cain prefers to make his stand right here, but is overruled by the late Commander Adama's son.
Apollo may win this fight, but he may not win the battle. For the next planet indicated on the holocube is also known to the Cylons, and they are waiting for the Galacticans in full force. It's only through the intervention of their newly installed quantum-shift technology that the fleet manages to escape the trap, as they are warped halfway across the galaxy to find themselves once again at their starting point: the planet Kobol--the birthplace of the Kobollian race that was destroyed by the Cylons twenty yahren ago.
Why have they been brought back to Kobol, and who is responsible for it? Have the Lords of Light granted them a new beginning? Or is this another plot by the Lord of Evil, Count Iblis, to finally exact his revenge against Adama's family and the entire Galactican fleet?
