Customer Reviews

Excellent Team story
I received an advance copy of the book, Stargate SG1: The Barque of Heaven and just recently finished reading it. I am very pleased to say that this story hearkens back to the good old team adventure days. There's something for everyone to do, some really nice team and character moments, with a bit more emphasis on Daniel & Jack. This book reminds me WHY SG1 is the team that I love; they aren't just a team, they are a family and in the story it shows. I wish I could go into further detail as there is just so much that I would like to discuss, but unfortunately that would require spoiling the story. Suffice to say that I recommend this story to anyone who is a team `gen' fan who enjoys the team embark on an (mis)adventure

Family team work to a 'T'
I also got the advanced copy. My cover, however, adds Jack on the left and Daniel on the right with the eye in the middle. The author, Suzanne Wood really did a wonderful job in keeping with the characters interactions with each other. The classic lines that Jack always uses and his way of pushing his team on when he knows that it may be impossible. The 'No one gets left behind' is seen here. This book is such a page turner with what seems like endless adventure and suspense, because they have to go through 13 gates and it is the 'what is on the other side' that is so great! Keeps you wanting to read. I highly recommend this book for all SG1 fans!

TV show/book tie-in -- and it works!
Having just finished the advanced copy myself, I agree that it is definitely a good, old-fashioned team story. This shows a group of four people who are more than just a team. They are a family that care about each other. That was a strong emotion and story catalyst in the early years of the show (known online as the "classic years"), and it felt good to see it again in this book.

They worked together to get out of their misadventure, each using their particular field of expertise in a logical manner and performing tasks in-character. There was adventure, angst, fighting, whumping, moments of extraordinary friendship -- everyone had a very strong role in this tale.

All in all, it "felt" and "read" like a classic year story, and that's pretty high praise in my humble opinion.
