The Forward in this book sounds exciting,especially if you are a Daniel Fan. But there's the rub,more like inaction on his part for most of the book I'm afraid.
His time is taken up with a board game with Lord Yu (we are not quite sure why).Dealing with four colours, four dragon pieces (with different coloured eyes), four guards and four children. In China the number four is considered unlucky and is avoided so I'm not sure why it is so prominent in this book (unless it evaluates to the four members of SG1. Red for Jack, Grey for Teal'c, Blue for Sam and Green for Daniel).
A book for your collection, but not one of the best.
