A outstanding second effort in the SG-1 book series
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
After reading The Price You Pay, the first of the Stargate SG-1 books, and wading through the horrid errors and conflicts with the tv series that plauged it, I was rather weary of reading this second story from the same author. However, as soon as I began reading, it became apparent that Ms McConnell did learn from her first effort, and is trying not to make the same mistake twice. This book is much more firmly placed in the mythology of the show, and the various allusions to past events were right on the money. The storyline, involving a journalist stumbling on the Stargate program and the search for a missing SG team, is much faster paced than that of the last book, and in my opinion, much more interesting. This is an outstanding story that has totally renewed my faith in the SG-1 novels, and I'm greatly looking forward to book 3.
An Excellent Book Worth Buying

I just loved this book. It really was quite a interesting twist to what the stargate command would do if a reporter inflitrated the compound. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves the series.
A much needed dose of Stargate
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I enjoyed this book for the most part. I feel the trip throught the Stargate could have been better developed but it was enjoyable to see an inside view of the workings of the "mountain". The main characters were all there, participating in the problem solving. There was a writers view of the teamwork seen in each episode, and some food for thought added in as well. Is the world really ready for the idea that we are part of a bigger universe out there? I don't know but this book presents some interesting questions. I await the next book in the series.
Not as good as The Price you pay
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
The First Ammendment is good it's about a reporter that get's into the SGC facillity and goes through the Stargate. While it is good it is not as good as the Price you pay. Neither of the books read like a television show. And some of the characters personalities are not exactly correct.
The First Amendment, of the book, no need to re-do
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Having read the other Stargate novels by Ashley McConnell I expected an action packed story, and although it did not immediately throw you into the plot, I was not disappointed. What would the stargate team do if the Stargate was discovered by a journalist?, What would they do if it was the son of the senator that tried to shut them down before? How would they stop him from telling all? The only fault I found with it was the lack of drama at the beginning of the novel. It took a couple of chapters to get going, but by the end it became an adventure that would test O'Neill and his team. I am looking forward to the next Stargate novel, called The Morpheus Mandate.
