3.0 out of 5 stars Not the best... nowhere near, March 21, 2001

By	Geonn W. Cannon "geonn" (Oklahoma) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book was a difficult read for me. First of all, she kept referring to Daniel's BLONDE hair. In one scene there was a reference to Amanda Carter (played by Samantha Tapping, maybe?) and she mentioned a Stargate in Iceland. I assume she was referring to the season one episode where the 'gate was in Antartica. I was just happy she got the name of Jack's son right. I got the feeling that this book was hastily thrown together and I got an all-together bad feeling from it. It was an excellent story, but I've read fan fiction that was better.

2.0 out of 5 stars This review is going to sound like the others..., May 24, 2003

By	Michael Valdivielso (Alexandria, VA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

Good point: The plot is an interesting idea.

Bad points: No background for the characters, jumps right into the story and the story does seem to end VERY swiftly. I wanted more about the planet, the alien race and more interaction between SG-1 itself. Details, details to give it flavor, color, shapes, to make it a meal to enjoy. This book was more like pre-chewed gum!
Weak and not for a person NEW to the TV series. This is my first read from the book series and I hope the first three books were BETTER. Maybe starting from the beginning would have been better...

2.0 out of 5 stars Don't Waste Your Time, May 21, 2001

By A Customer

The book trodded along for far too long, without any real plot. 304 pages went by before the author was stunned to realize she should probably stop writing and wrapped up the entire thing in two pages. There are many, many fan fiction stories which are superior to this one. Even the bad fan fic is over before you have time to worry about it's shoddiness. The basic errors (Daniel's BLONDE hair) and AMANDA Carter proved to me that this book was thrown together. I wish I had waited before buying this book. Live and learn, I suppose.
