Stargate Sg-1: The Morpheus Factor: 6

I thought it was an ok story, but there were a lot of mistakes coming from the author and the time-line of this book: first off was that the names of the main characters were messed up, second was that this book was supposed to be some-time after their mission to Netu and their run-in with their biggest enemy, thirdly was that it wasn't till the 4th season that they met up with Osiris , and finally they got the relationships between the characters all wrong as well, such as O'neill and Frasier when in the show it would be between him and Carter. As well as the issue with messing with the imaginations of the main characters and their memories which was also brought up in the season 2 episode" The Game Keeper", and they made the crucial mistake of getting the wrong area when they mentioned finding the 2nd gate since they found it Anartica rather then in Iceland. But other then these mistakes the story was really good. Read the other three books before you read this since this is during the middle of the third season, so it'll make a little more since after a while.

Anyone who says this is a bad book obviously knows very little about writing. Granted, yes there were a few mistakes, but overall I thought the book was beautifully written. I found myself unable to put the book down. I would definitely recommend this book to die hard Stargate SG-1 fans.

The characterization of the core characters is very good, and drew quite a few chuckles along the way. Sometimes, you can just picture the respective actor/actress saying those very lines. The ending however was too fast and too short, especially when the pace of the book only starts to take off towards the middle of the book. The romance angle is also rather inconsistent (based on having watched only the 1st & 2nd season of SG-1), I thought it was supposed to be slanted towards O'Neil and Carter (?). The latter half of the book has a tinge feel of Bill McCay's style and depth in his series of Stargate books (Incidentally, is he ever going to conclude his story arc?). Overall, it is a very enjoyable book and certainly recommended for fans of the TV series.

This book is considerably better than the others McConnell has written as far a characterization goes. They react more like friends than just teammates and the ending isn't as depressing. The storyline is a not as straightforward as her other books. Towards the end of the book, I thought that the plot got a bit more confusing than usual and some small hints of romantic interest were conflicting with the episodes in Season 4. It is still a very good book and I enjoyed it much more than 'The Price You Pay'. If you enjoy Stargate SG-1, this is one you will want to get!

The SG-1 Team goes on a reconnaissance to a new world inhabited by Kayeechi. As soon as the team steps through the Stargate they find theirselves in an unusual world where trees move. After being on this world the team discovers that each member has a different reality of what the world looks like. The Kayeechi seem friendly enough but they have underlining secrets. It turns out the natives shift dreams and shapes. The Kayeechi drug the SG-1 team so that the natives can shift the dreams of the team members. The natives are basically primitative in technology and are using the team to advance their weapon skills. As far as the Kayeechi are concerned they are just trying to survive and will do anything to insure the survival of their species. The SG-1 Team realize that they must leave this world when they can no longer trust their senses.Ashley McConnell does a good job in weaving this book. It was slow in spots for me but otherwise a good read.
