Trouble in paradise
Colonel John Sheppard knows it’s going to be a bad day when he wakes up in a downed Jumper with a head wound and no memory of how he got there.
Things don’t get any better.
Concussed, far from the Stargate, and with his only remaining team mate, Teyla, injured, Sheppard is soon taken prisoner by the local population. As he gradually pieces things together, he realises his team is scattered across a tropical archipelago, unable to communicate with each other or return to the Stargate. And to make matters worse, there’s a Wraith cruiser in the skies above.
Meanwhile, Ronon and Doctor Zelenka find themselves in an unlikely partnership as they seek a way off their island and back to the Stargate. And Doctor McKay? He just wants to get the Stargate working…
DEATH GAME
“Something’s not right about this.”
“I share your sense of unease,” Teyla said. John had spoken the words that were behind the creeping sense of wrongness she felt. “I have seen other worlds with as much, but they were in fear of the Wraith. They had precautions, plans. These people do not even seem to know what we mean. Why have the Wraith not come?”
John shook his head.
Teyla picked up a piece of fruit and continued. “There are, for better or worse, three responses to the Wraith. To hide, as the Genii do, and hope that the Wraith will not discover the extent of one’s civilization. To defy them and fight, as the Satedans did. Or to disperse and give them no targets, as my people did. All of the peoples of this galaxy that I have met do one or another of these. These people…” Her voice trailed off as the barge came upon another large stone wharf, passing a barge that lay tied up beside it, cattle being loaded aboard. “These people are a puzzle.”
“Something’s rotten,” John said. “I don’t like it.” He took the radio from his pocket. The light flashed standby.
“You will try to call them again?”
He shook his head. “The battery is low. And we’ll hear them when they call us in range.”
“Surely by now they are looking…”

This was a pretty good SGA book. A little slow, but good. There is some character background written in this book, and you can believe what you want, since the show writers never gave us any background details! Although some stories were very dull, I did enjoy Sheppard's. I would call this book a prequel to the SGA Legacy series. I read Legacy 1-6 before this set of books and it would have been good to read this one before Legacy. Not sure why the author called Ronon's dreadlocks braids though. Two completely different things.Product details

STARGATE ATLANTIS Death Game eBook Jo Graham Reviews
As a die hard SGA fan I read every book that comes out, this one is in the middle as far as how much I enjoyed it. Not the worse, but not the best. Don't get me wrong it was a good book but it was a slow read. There are a lot of 'stories' told by characters that were interesting, they give incite to the character, but it tended to drag the book out. The story line was good but there wasn't as much action as I would have liked. Other then that it was a good read, well worth my time!
One of the best Stargate Atlantis books I have read. This book has lots of back stories that covered Characters Like Major Lorne and Dr. Zelanka. It also paired up Characters with each other Like Dr. Zelanka and Ronan in difficult situations. This book was very engaging, I could not put it down!
I ordered this book even though there were no reviews on it yet. That's always taking a chance since many of the Atlantis books are very well written and others not so much. This book is definitely well written and for the most part everyone is in character. The interaction between the characters is good and the pairings atypical, also good. The story isn't exactly fast moving and I did skim through some of the slower parts but no doubt the writer has a nice writing style. The adventure did pick up toward the end but much of it was somewhat slow paced. The thing I really didn't like (and the reason for only 3 stars) is that the author spent a large portion of the book having the characters tell each other stories while they were waiting around for things to happen. These stories gave background on several of the characters. But the stories, in my opinion, didn't necessarily ring true to the characters that we learned about in the show. First, the story is written around the second season where supposedly no one knows that Sheppard even has a family (episode Sateda) however, the author had Sheppard telling Teyla this incredibly long detailed story about his mother, father, brother, etc... The author also writes that Sheppard only began thinking about joining the Air Force halfway through college, and then only because his Dad decides to stop paying for him. The reason is that Sheppard calls Dad's new girlfriend a bimbo and a few other not so nice words in public. Out of character IMO. The implication also being that Sheppard and his Dad had a great relationship until that point. (Episode Outcast tells us Dad had his life planned out for him since he was 14 and John couldn't wait to get away). But beside the fact that these stories don't ring true, they also in no way connect to or enhance the plot or outcome of the story. They are simply thrown in there for the amusement of the writer. And there's no way John would have just volunteered such detailed information to Teyla just because they were bored. Especially not in Season 2. As a fan fiction the story is well done, but to actually become a published novel, I think the story needs to stick closer to canon and not the whim of the author, I know this author has several new Atlantis novels coming out. I hope these will stay closer to the facts of the show. I don't mind speculation and background on characters, in fact I love seeing interaction and introspection, but it has to be believeable and agree with what we already know.
I am normally not picky and did enjoy the book. But if you get upset if a story has technical holes this may not be for you.
I enjoyed the pace and adventure that the team had. The humor in parts made me laugh out loud, which I usually don't do.
The plot of this book and the way it is written are worthy of 5 stars. It was interesting and I enjoyed. However I gave it 3 stars because the excessive back stories told by the characters point of view were annoying. Not to mention that some of the back story just did not fit with the characters and in Sheppard's case seemed unbelievable. I thought the author took some liberties with his back story and I was disappointed. But the overall book was very good if you can get past the characters telling their back stories too often.
That’s is more words to say about this book Thea is ever said previous time but the more that I read that more I loved it is not a sequel is a series not Are standing by itself
