Babylon 5?

[sg_lab2]

I am just one ep. away from finishing Babylon 5.

I just saw the ep. Objects at Rest and I was a little teary eyed as John and Delenne left Babylon 5.

Has anyone read any of the B5 novels? I've only just realized they exist and fill in a lot of the things left from the show. I've always had so many questions after the show ended.

What brought G'kar back to Centauri Prime which led to the fullfilliment of Londo's dream that G'Kar would kill him?

What happened to Lyta?

In the ep. Sleeping in light, there's a scene that I've always recalled. Stephen was visiting Michael and they were talking about the invitation from John for all of them gather. Stephen mentions something about Michael and John having some conflict between them, but it never gets more specific than that. What's the conflict Stephen is referring to?

Are any of these questions answered in these books I've heard about?

It's been so long since I watched this series there were a lot of things I forgot. I was thinking the ep. where Michael leaves B5 was the last ep. I remember certain scenes, but I forgot where they were in the scheme of the show.

On another topic, I've been reading Wicked and I must confess it's just not my cup of tea. I have it for a few more days before it's due back at the library. I'll keep reading until then and see if I like it any better.

Oh yes. I've read several of them. Probably my favorites would be the Centauri trilogy and To Dream in the City of Sorrows - the book that details Sinclairs life on Minbar before he goes through the time rift with Babylon 4.

What brought G'kar back to Centauri Prime which led to the fullfilliment of Londo's dream that G'Kar would kill him?

That is a question that is answered in the Centauri trilogy, the third book if I remember correctly. I haven't read these books in a while. The Centauri trilogy covers Londo's life from becoming Emperor up to the immediate aftermath of his death. Vir figures in quite alot, along with several other characters, including Sheridan, Delenn, their son(mostly in the third book), two of Londo's wives - Timov and Mariel, and a whole host of others.

As for the conflict between Sheridan and Garabaldi, as far as I can recall, that's not something that was ever explained. I myself have always been curious about it, though. What were the boys going on about now?
