   I got the first two of those novels and I have been meaning to get the   
   rest of them.   I like the fact that he did do those for a while, and I   
   generally appreciate the efforts of anyone to make stories for the   
   classic series.   
      
   And overtime you come to just take it for what it is.  I mean on the   
   fuel and food issue, it seems like even in the TV run they would fine   
   one episode and in crisis the next.  Just figure some time passes   
   between episodes and you have to admit it is a big fleet so those   
   resources would go quick.   
      
   Honestly if I was Adama I think I would have worked to seed the galaxy   
   with humans dropping them off on the habitable planets we they went   
   along.  That way, something happens, humanity has multiple footholds.
