Rec Category: Daniel Jackson
Pairing: None.
Category: Gen, Action/Adventure
Warning: None.
Author on LJ: Unknown.
Author's Website: Other Places
Link: Desert Son
Author's Summary: Daniel is drawn in to the strange politics of a world waiting to be relocated to a better place. Is the price to help them too high?"
Why This Must Be Read: A long, plotty action/adventure tale that reads as vividly as any episode. The author has created a physical world, an alien culture, and original characters that are felt with all of the reader's senses, and gives us a predicament for these people, and SG-1, that is original, complex and suspenseful and that calls to the reader's emotions. Using established "science" from the episodes - the time-shifting sun flares from 1969 - grounds the story in what is Stargate reality and creates an ending that resonates with the reader long after the tale is finished. And Daniel? Daniel is our Daniel, at the center of the piece and a thinking, feeling, resourceful, self-sacrificing, yet unassuming, hero.
