Review:
Exile is the second book in the Apocalypse series. The SG-1 team is stuck in a post-apocalyptic future, while Dr Fraiser struggles to save as many as she can while being undercut by those who are only out for themselves. The novel is told in parallel stories set in the two time periods. The writing is excellent, as the characters are spot on as well as an impressively complex storyline. There are several great plot twists that lead to big revelations in the other time period. It has been a while since I read the previous book in the series, but I was able to jump right in and follow along. The Goa’uld, Wraith, and even traitors from within makes for a thrilling adventure. I look forward to the next in this exciting saga.
