Why This Must Be Read: This novel-length story is everything you could want in an epic SG-1 adventure. It takes a hard right into AU after Death Knell, and it's chock-full of Daniel and philosophy and Sam and science and Teal'c with his unique viewpoint and the Free Jaffa and Jack as the CO, the one who makes the hard decisions, the one who keeps the team working, and the one who has to deal with the ultimate agony when someone gets irrevocably left behind.
Add McKay and Siler and Hammond and Janet and Jacob into the mix, with heavy elements of Anubis and Ascension and communication with the uncommunicable, and fantastic friendship and dialogue. You'll spend hours reading this, and quite likely want to go right back to the beginning when you're done!
Jack didn't like having his team split up. He liked having them all together where he could keep an eye on them. When they were offworld with other teams there was always the nagging fear that they'd be kidnapped by hungry natives (in Daniel's case) or hunted to exhaustion by supersoldiers (in Carter's). Despite the fact that they were on Carter's turf at the moment, and she was less rejoining the team and more shepherding them around the base, it felt right to be back together.
"Couldn't wait to see this new toy of yours," Jack said. It looked like they weren't going to get their ten minutes of unsupervised snooping around, after all. Idly, he wondered who'd called her down here.
"Really?" Carter asked. "Which new toy were you referring to?"
Jack glanced over at Daniel, who raised both eyebrows in a How are you going to get out of this one? gesture. Jack coughed. "Oh, any of the very, very interesting new devices which you covered in your thoroughly engrossing progress report which – well, you know me – I read cover to cover," he lied.
They'd obviously caught Sam in a good mood, because she rewarded him with a full grin and laugh. "Of course, sir. Would you like the tour?"
Jack smiled back. "Love it. T here has to hunt down Edwards, get the low-down on security, but Daniel and I want to see what you're up to."
Carter gestured them down Corridor A1, already beaming as Teal'c bowed out. "This way," she said.
