Goddess Hathor is headed straight for Earth in her extraordinary space vessel to wreak deadly damage! Egyptologist Daniel Jackson and Colonel Jack O'Neil are the only humans who may be able to stop... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Stargate Retribution by Bill McCay brings back the action in the series. I loved the first book yet found the second book wanting. But the third book brought back both the action, the swiftly moving plot and the characters with all their flaws and conflicts. Earth must now prepare for the attack by Hathor and the Boat of a Million Years. Can Jack O'Neil and General West explain to the military just WHAT is about to hit the planet? Can Daniel Jackson find homes and jobs for the homless people of Adydos? Can Earth find anything in the past to fight for their future?
Good partial wrapup

McCay brings a good conclusion to the first two books in his series, while still leaving a believeability for the next two. Anyone who liked the movie would enjoy these books, note for those of you who watch the series like me, you have to think Kurt Russell to read this. It's enjoyable for anyone, not just the full-fledged stargate/stargate sg-1 junkie. :) Read them all, stargate and the stargate sg-1 books, they will hit the spot!!!!
We've got a full-fledged series here

I don't know about you but i found the tv show stargate sg-1 to be disappointing because it doesn't feel like stargate and those actors don't give the characters justice like the ones in the movie did. that's whats great about the books, they "feel" like stargate and you can picture the characters the way they were in the movie, they way they're supposed to be.
Great conclusion

For soft-core sci-fi, this is great stuff. A great ending to a great series. Bill McCay takes the story begun in the movie and brings it to a logical (if yet open-ended) conclusion. Only wish the TV series learned from Bill's great ideas.
Make a movie!

A very entertaining book! I have read the others, and I liked this one the best of all! The author makes the interactions between the characters come alive! It is easy to visualize what someone like Steven Spielberg could do with the material from this novel! Good job, Bill McCay!
