Steven Saville, author of numerous sci-fi/fantasy series, has shed more light on his forthcoming SG-1 trilogy in an interview with Gateworld.net.
Here are a few of the highlights from the interview:
Things start off with a bang -- Tok'ra agents being compromised, a search and rescue that goes hideously wrong, and a time shift that drops our heroes in a world tearing itself apart from the inside out. It is a quite dark story in places, I freely admit, but it (hopefully) isn't preachy. It's a trilogy: 'Shadows,' 'Shapeshifter,' and 'Trickster,' which the astute reader will spot immediately as being part of the archetypal characters of the monomyth -- a big hint, right there.
What we've done is basically plot out an entire season arc in the trilogy, so instead of getting an extra episode we're offering up enough thrills, danger, excitement, humor, and story for an entire season -- and with a limitless special effects budget. So we're talking some fun, as well.
The first book is set to be released in early 2009. You can pre-order on Amazon here.
