5.0 out of 5 stars A gread Read, 22 Jul 2008
By J.S. "J.S." (Cork, Ireland) - See all my reviews
Stargate Atlantis: Blood Ties (Stargate Atlantis)

Having read most of the Stargate Atlantis books, I have to say this by far is one of my favourites... I am a big fan of Elizabeth and Sonny's works so far and can't wait till the next book comes out with the duo..

This book speculates that legendary creatures were created by an Ancient who as usual did not clean up the mess, and as a result a 10,000 year old secret religion emerged as a result.

The best thing about this book in my opinion is that most of it takes place on Earth, rather then a planet 3 million light years away and that makes it credible. more conceivable and therefore more believable.

For the Die Hard SGA fans this is a must read. For the new fans knowing a little about Stargate's past will help, but the book is not confusing that you will be lost.

A great read and 5 out of 5.

Well done Elizabeth and Sonny.

5.0 out of 5 stars The - so far - most interesting SGA novel, 29 Jan 2008
This is in many ways the most interesting Stargate Atlantis book I have read so far and with one exception, I have enjoyed this book very much.

First of all, the book did something I am still waiting for in SGA on TV: a team-up with Daniel Jackson. He added a lot to the story and not only because the interactions between him and Rodney were very entertaining indeed. The book also introduced a new character who played an important part, the FBI profiler Rebecca Larance. I found her very intriguing from the very beginning.

The idea of Wraith on Earth has been touched at only very little on TV so far and this book explores this topic in ways I wouldn`t have imagined. We find out that there is so much more behind the killings that look like Wraith feedings. The authors look at various elements from history and mythology as well as genetics and expand on what we learned so far from various episodes.

The book has a healthy mix of character elements, action and real life and not so real life science and technology. I also enjoyed the sense of wonder, of discovery when the authors described a world on which dinosaurs and other ancient creatures are alive and have developed in remarkable ways.

I never liked the IOA much but when Woolsey said annihilating that world would not be genocide because the world has no human inhabitants, I felt sick and disliked that organization and that bureaucrat even more than before. I really hope I will never hear that justification in "canon" SGA! I am glad that there was no discussion if such an order had to be followed and about the importance of the chain of command: There was an immediate agreement that this world and especially its sentient inhabitants needed to be saved and that their survival had to be kept a secret. The plan worked beautifully and it was a nice idea to finish the book on that positive note.

The authors touched the question of what it means to be human in interesting ways. There is one part in the book in which Ronon was challenged to face his attitude towards the Wraith I especially liked. Also Teyla got some interesting parts, although not necessarily good ones. The only part I don`t like in the book is the end of most of the Wraith related humans (to keep it simple) on Earth. Triggering a mass killing by singing a specific song was just a too ridiculous idea! Even the authors said that Dr. Lam gave an explanation that Teyla didn`t understand but left it with that. Well, it is one way of pushing the reset button although the authors left the door open because some of these people survived and are hidden somewhere.

Anyway, I am hoping for more interesting SGA stories like this one in future!

4.0 out of 5 stars Not the best
It's a very interesting book and a must for any Stargate Atlantis or Stargate SG-1 fan. With that said it's not my favourite Stargate novel. Not even in my top three. Read more
