I just finished the story. Once I picked up, today, with where I had left off yesterday, I couldn't stop reading.
Eric,
My sincerest congratulations to you, as you have woven an absolutely incredible story out of the threads of Galactica and Planet of the Apes. Also, as an unbelievable side benefit, you even gave plausability to one of the least enjoyed storylines of TOS.
Very, very well done!!
Pete
