3.0 out of 5 stars Too many Politics, 24 Jul 1999
By A Customer
The book is very good, especially when the action is happening. The author did a very good job building the "picture" for the reader. Even though setting the stage is important, the use of politics of was over done. The other item that I found distracting was the lingo that the Natives used at time (It was 100% American born) The natives would have had thier own style and would not have unterstood or used some of the text use in thier speech. You saying, well there was english teachers on the planet. Well if anyone has lived overseas they will know that people even when they do know english, the lingo is not there. Nit picking, but I found it as a distraction in the book on many occasions, especially when you wrap it in with politics.

The first half of the book is just a bit slow and sometimes not believable, the second portion was VERY good.

4.0 out of 5 stars I thought this was a good adaptation of the film series, 19 Oct 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Stargate: Rebellion (Stargate, No 1) (Paperback)
This book follows on directly from the film. It also, coincidentally, ignores a couple of important points from the film ending (like the fact that the Stargate was buried in the film at the end), but still makes a good story. The action is fast-paced and continuous, if a little violent at times (especially in the scenes with Ra's replacement, Hathor). It still makes a better sequel to the original film than the Stargate SG1 series and develops the "mythology" of the original well.
