"Nor Friends To Part" by Terri Evans, Starbuck and Cy's escape from the

past. "Tale of an End" by Loriele has Sheba discovering that you should
NEVER mess with a Borellian Marsh Yak! And "What's A Battlestar?" by Leoni,

same face...
Three From Thirteen x 3
(13TH: UK:£4.75 EUR:£5.5 USA:£6.5 PAC:£6.75 )
Copyright 1998; 82 pages - Three very different stories dealing with the
Colonials' first contact with Earth. Richard Cosgrove's "First Impressions"
has a routine patrol coming across the survivors of a crashed shuttle. Will
they be friend or foe? With the Cylons lurking just behind the fleet, there
may not be time to find out. "A Souvenir Of Earth" by Mary Wernke has Apollo
and Starbuck passing through a spatial anomaly similar to the void to come to
the rescue of a strange spaceship on an oddly-named mission. And in Jonathan
S. Rudderham's "The Link", an ill Starbuck starts hearing a voice - that of a
mysterious woman on Earth. As she faces subterfuge and murder back home, it
is her contact with the Colonial warrior that may provide the key to
salvation.

"The Falling Of Night" by Wendy Grice, a moving tale about Apollo and

Tribe's best ever 'zines, a highly recommended read. Second revised edition

to reevaluate their beliefs; by contrast, "Starbuck's Reward" by Jeremy

gift from the Gods when a shuttle crash-lands on their lonely planet. But
the shuttle also brings with it a deadly confrontation.
