Stargate Resistance: Amazon.ca: Bill McCay, John Kenneth: Books

Product Description

Led by Colonel Jack O'Neil and Daniel Jackson, the Abydan refugees left Earth for a world they could call home. Instead they found hell...

Earth's Stargate link to planet Ballas is broken, leaving the Abydan colonists stranded - and stalked by a merciless enemy. Believed first to be primitive beasts native to Ballas, these cat-like predators arrived through the Stargate - possessing superior firepower and innate military cunning. But who are these aliens, and why are they on Ballas? The answers lie in the secret past of an alien race - a race that is all too familiar to O'Neil and Jackson.

3.0�toiles sur 5 Good but drawn out, Nov. 22 2002

Par	DarkKnight "darkknight55" (Glendale Heights, IL United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires

This review is from: Stargate 05 Resistance (Paperback)

Just an FYI, these books are based on Stargate the movie and not Stargate SG-1 the TV series, which is much better than the movie. SG-1 expands on the different worlds that could be dialed up on the Stargate which could- and does lead to all kinds of adventures, making the TV series much more interesting especially with the excellent choice for of a cast.
This is the final book out of 5 in the series. The problem that I have is that the whole book series is very drawn out with various sub plots that could have been shortened and probably bring the series to 3 books instead of 5. I also find this series somewhat more bland then the SG-1 series because of the lack of the other characters. All in all it was still interesting reading and I am glad I did.

This review is from: Stargate 05 Resistance (Paperback)

What some folks may not be aware of is that the SG-1 series was based on the hit movie Stargate. In my opinion, the movie was far superior to the series and the novels that continue the movie thread (not the series) also reflect this.

If you are a fan of the tv series and never saw the movie (or like the series more than the film that started it all), then stick with the SG-1 books based on the tv show because this book will not carry over some of your favorite characters from the show - except the originals that came from the film (and will carry over their characteristics, not the ones reflected in the show). If you are a fan of the movie then definitely pick up this series of books.

Unfortunately, some of the other reviews here of this book appear to be by fans of the tv series who expected this book to be a continuation of this show...and actually thought the book was based on the series. The book says right on the cover that it is based on the characters created by Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich, the writers of the movie. These two creative people are not involved in the tv series (which is too bad because I would probably watch it more if they were).

So if you want a great read that continues the story started in the movie then pick the whole series up. If you are expecting a book that is based on the show then you'll be disappointed.

This review is from: Stargate 05 Resistance (Paperback)

This book is a rush. The story is suspenseful the whole way through. I hope there is another book but i'm glad we got five great ones continueing the stargate tradition.

4.0�toiles sur 5 This can't be the end of the series!
I have read the four preceding books and I did like this one as much as the others. However, this can't be the end of the series! Not one thread in the story gets an ending! Read more
