Tie-Ins: Blake's 7

Blake's 7 is a 70s British sci fi show about a group of criminals turned revolutionaries fighting an evil galactic empire.  I remember nothing of the stories, but the show boasts two of the most amazing characters in pop culture: the sexy, cold-blooded Servalan and the sociopathic anti-hero Avon.

Big Finish has published a seemingly never-ending stream of audio dramas with much of the original cast, much of it better written than the TV series.

1978: Blake's 7 aka Blake's 7: Their First Adventure by Trevor Hoyle and Terry Nation
1979: Project Avalon by Trevor Hoyle (Seek–Locate–Destroy, Duel, Project Avalon, Deliverance and Orac)
1981: Scorpio Attack by Trevor Hoyle (Rescue, Traitor and Stardrive)
1984: Afterlife by Tony Attwood - original novel set after the series
1989: Avon: A Terrible Aspect by Paul Darrow - prequel novel

Big Finish published several novels - I'm not sure if they're novelizations of audio dramas or vice-versa:

2012: The Forgotten
2012: Archangel
2013: Warship
2013: Lucifer
2013: Anthology
2014: Lucifer: Revelation
2014: Criminal Intent
2015: Lucifer: Genesis
2015: Mediasphere
2017: Heroes
2019: Urising
