hawkwing_lbBooks 2012: 170-172
170. Sabine C. Bauer, Stargate SG-1: Transitions. Fandemonium, 2011.
A solid (for Stargate) and appealing story, set post-Season 8, and starring in addition characters from Stargate: Atlantis. Bauer is one of the better writers still working in the Stargate universe, and while I do not heap high praise upon the book, it was a safe, comforting, and entertaining read.
171. J.F. Crane, Stargate SG-1: Sunrise. Fandemonium, 2011.
This particular tie-in fell down on giving the main characters some reason to be emotionally invested in the new-and-fucked-up-planet-of-the-week. Not utterly terrible, but not particularly stand-out in any way, either.
172. Amy Griswold, Stargate SG-1: Heart's Desire. Fandemonium, 2012.
Good character work, solid scene-setting, decent tension. It is let down by a less-than-awesome climax, but up till then, an entertaining story.
Yeah, I needed undemanding stories. Probably still do. But alas, I should endeavour to focus on my work.
And now I cease to spam LJ.
