When SG-1 encounter the Pack - a nomadic space-faring people who have fled the Goa'uld domination for generations - it seems as though a trade of technologies will benefit both sides.

But someone is determined to derail the deal. With the SGC under attack, and Vice President Kinsey breathing down their necks, it's up to Colonel Jack O'Neill and his team to uncover the saboteur and save the fledgling alliance. But unbeknownst to SG-1 there are far greater forces at work - a calculated revenge that spans decades, and a desperate gambit to prevent a cataclysm of epic proportions.

When the identity of the saboteur is revealed, O'Neill is faced with a horrifying truth and is forced into an unlikely alliance in order to fight for Earth's future...

    This review contains spoilers!!

    I have read a good number of these Stargate SG1 stories and have to say this is one of my favorites. The storyline was creative, the characters likable and I thought the authors characterization of SG1 was spot on. I love stories that include time travel and to learn that the time travelers were Jack and his daughter was so much fun. Loved the interaction between the “Jacks”, far more entertaining and realistic than ever portrayed in the series (at least according to my perception of who jack was). Wont lie, was disappointed to not learn who the mother was…sigh. Anyway…great read. This no doubt will be re-read just as many times as my other favorite “Roswell” (also includes time travel)

    This book reads like an episode of the show. It was pure pleasure most of the time. There is one story line and characters who are both mysterious and tedious.

    The best part of this novel is the character voices. He absolutely nails Jack O'Neil and Teal'c. Even Hammond seems authentic. The rest are awesome too. Plus, a well hated antagonist shows up, no spoilers, but the writer just knocks that character out of the park. You'll be fuming, just like everytime that douche canoe is on the show.

    Just stellar writing, absolutely solid story. Pretty much unputdownable.

    I don't want to say too much about this story as it will give too much away. But SG-1 and the team have their share of mysteries to solve while having to endure the interference of our "favorite" politician, now Vice President Kinsey during a trade agreement with a nomadic tribe of people called The Pack. They have salvaged alien technology to trade for food and medical supplies. Although there are other ulterior motives at play as there are outside parties who want to prevent the treaty and cause harm to SG-1, the SGC, and ultimately Earth. But who are friends and who are enemies? And why do they really want to stop this treaty? You'll have to read it to find out for yourself. I highly recommend this book!

    Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2016

    This isn’t the worse Stargate book I’ve read -- that honor is reserved for Alliances – but it’s nowhere close to the best. The Aschen are back in Stargate SG-1 Relativity, trying to decimate the earth population through a convoluted plan that depends on Earth signing a treaty with a group of nomadic people called the Pack. In an effort to stop this disastrous deal, parties unknown try to sabotage the treaty signing. It’s an interesting premise, nothing really new for this series, but it should have provided an enjoyable read.

    I didn’t like Jade from the start of this book, everything from her name to her hair, she can change the color at will, reminds me of bad fanfiction -- learning her origins did not help. What really annoyed me is the way Sg-1 seemed to lose all common sense when dealing with her. SG-1 has had multiple experiences with the Aschen, nanites, and people probing their minds – most of them not good. So why would they ever agree to enter a known saboteurs mind so she could prove to them that she was telling the truth. They took Jade’s word that she could not lie when they enter her mind and trusted her not use the connection to take control of them or steal codes and classified information from their minds. That last point was never brought up as a possible outcome of the connection. I know over the series SG-1 has taken their share of risks, but this struck me as monumentally stupid. Also Jade never satisfactorily answered the question why she couldn’t send a note back from the future to warn the SGC. It worked before and the SGC isn’t full of idiots; just write down the planet designation and Aschen – problem solved.

    I found the characterization of SG-1 to be a little off -- not as bad as it was in Alliances, but off enough to be annoying. Also the author couldn’t seem to make up his mind whether to refer to Dr. Jackson as Jackson or Daniel, this was highly annoying. For the most part SG-1 is pretty consistent in how they refer to each other and what they call each other. I can’t remember a single time Teal’c has called Daniel just Jackson or Major Carter just Major it was off putting seeing that.

    For all its flaws the book did have its good parts. Like I said before it was an interesting premise and the battle at the end of the book was well done. The discussions about changing events in the past and how that would affect the future timeline were, as always, interesting. I gave this book three stars.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Superbly Done.. an excellent addition to SG-1 Novels
    Reviewed in the United States on November 10, 2014

    I enjoyed revisiting SG-1 with this great book. The characterizations were spot on, the action and storyline were superb and kept my attention, drawing me into the book - also, the humor was excellent, and it added to the franchise with new insights into things. I particularly enjoyed the way O'Neill related to the "old man" (Commander) from the future, as it struck a chord with me as being real that he would take an adversarial role towards him, even once he figured out who he was. I love time travel books and was pleasantly surprised to find that element in the book. I read minimal reviews (so as not to spoil it by knowing too much) and did not know it had Time Travel in it. This is one of my top to re-reads from the franchise. I highly recommend it. It is superbly done.

    The book reads almost like an SG1 episode. There were a few minor mistakes in characterization — mostly with dialogue — but it did not detract from its enjoyment. SG1 always told fun and twisty time travel stories, and this one is no less.

    This is one of the few Stargate SG-1 novels that I truly enjoyed. It could have easily made a great movie. The plot is great, and there is an over hanging question throughout the book that keeps you interested. The battles, both small and big were fantastically described. I will be looking out for more from this author!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Not even slightly boring!
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 4, 2008
    Verified Purchase
    I think "Sci Fi Geek" just made a lucky guess!

    It was because of that review that I decided to read the beginning of the book again. I got to the introduction of the two new characters in question and only because I knew the plot and what I was looking for I could see a familiarity in one of the characters... I then went on for a few more chapters... and then a few more; nowhere did I find a hint as to who they really were until it was actually stated - and this time I knew what I was looking for! I may sound a bit vague, but I don't want to spoil the plot for those who have yet to read it.

    If you are the type to try and guess the plot at every turn of the page, and you turn out to be right, you won't prove it until much later on, so no harm done! Though trying to constantly guess the plot is like watching a film with my mother - "why are they doing that?", "is he the killer?", "I wonder if he's a double agent!" and on and on and on and.......

    Read this book as it comes, page by page, and don't allow the mystery of characters to spoil it - if you let yourself flow with the book the mystery enhances the read.

    Do not let Sci Fi Geek's review put you off reading this book. I have read all the SG1 and Atlantis books that have been published so far, and this by no means comes at the bottom of the list - as you can see I awarded it 4 stars.

    I found the story easy to get into, with a well painted introduction of new allies and their background, whilst moving the story on at a reasonable pace. James Swallow puts just the right level of mystery behind the new characters, and before the (average) reader gets to find out who they are, there are other faces introduced into the mix, again with an air of mystery.... then the true plot begins to unfold, but it is by no means slow or boring getting to this point. There is plenty of action and tension throughout with a reasonable interplay of the main characters. The story concludes well, rather than petering out, yet leaves enough for a possible sequel (please Mr Swallow).

    My only real criticism of this book, that's why only 4 stars, is that the SG1 characters do not jump off the page like some other SG1 novels. In other novels I have heard O'Neill's voice as I read and actually laughed out loud at some of his sardonic one liners. Although James Swallow captures the essence of the characters, he doesn't quite animate them as well as other authors have.

    That said, it is a good plot, the action is well paced and it follows a very "realistic" SG1 theme. If you like SG1 I think you'll enjoy this book.
