Description
Watch your step! It was meant to be an easy mission, a walk in the park. But SG-1's first trip off-world after Colonel O'Neill's return from Edora (STARGATE SG-1: One Hundred Days) proves to be anything but easy. Tapped for a covert assignment, O'Neill must conceal the truth from his team at all costs. So when Dr Daniel Jackson is injured and the mission begins to go awry, tensions quickly reach a breaking point. Stranded on a hostile planet, and desperate to find a way home before it's show more too late, O'Neill leads his fractured team on a desperate journey across a barren and forsaken world.

An enjoyable start to a series offshoot. Starts off with the classic SG1 stranded on a planet. The team are fractured - O'Neill has a secret and his behaviour is puzzling the team. I'd recommend reading the summary of the before and after TV episodes on the Stargate Wikia if you've forgotten them. It'll help. Then we encounter new aliens and they seem very familiar to the reader but not to the team - yep, it seems the wraith are in town.
At this point it becomes obvious that this is not your standard diversion to a different planet than intended.They have in fact been sent 100 years into the future . This is where the book ends and it will be interesting to see where it now goes.

All through this book, I kept remembering the episode this book relates to. I just didn't know how the author was going to reconcile the book against the episode. The ending was a shocker, I just didn't see it coming. I'm looking forward to how the story progresses in Book Two.
