Straight Outta the Federation enjoyed Project Avalon quite a bit. Blake really takes it to the Federation in this, we enjoyed hearing about other confederates, as it were, rebelling against the Federation across the Galaxy and the stand off between Blake and Travis is always fun. Of course, Jacqueline Pearce is spectacular with the first in person Servalan/Blake meeting.
