Well here we are with something a little different, an interview with the author Keith R. A. DeCandido.
Keith is a New Yorker born and bred who took to literature at a very early age encouraged by his parents with an interesting choice of authors. You may want to think back to what you were reading as a youngster then compare it to Keith’s reading list, for me a world of difference:) Keith is also a professional editor and has written his own original novels as well as making full use of licensed content and novelisations. His media and online endeavours populate an extensive list of accomplishments, check the links you will be amazed. Join Alan and Mike on this podcast as we chat with Keith about his work in the media and more specifically the appeal of Stargate and the result of said interest with his new novel “Kali’s Wrath” which was released on May 19th as an ebook and the paperback is out soon.
We want to thank Keith for giving us his time and since the interview was recorded a few days before the book was released and this podcast is being released a few days after I have tagged on a small review of the novel at the end of the interview, spoiler free. Next week we are going to be kicking off our Stargate Universe adventure starting with Air Part 1, Steve and Jeff joined us for that so gear up it turned out rather well:)

I watched the season 13 finale of NCIS the other day and it marked the return to the series for Marina Sirtis reprising her role as the Mossad leader Orli Elbaz in an episode named Family First. It was not only the conclusion to the season but also the mini-arc comprising four episodes.
NCIS returns for a fourteenth season later in the year.

In Continuum the second of the two straight the DVD movies that MGM produced for the Stargate we get closure of the Goa’uld storyline which goes all the ways back to Ra at least in terms of the tv aspect of the franchise. Ba’al has been captured and all his clones are dead but he seems rather confident that the Tok’ra procedure to remove the symbiont is not the last this galaxy will see of him and then people start vanishing one after another. General O’Neill rushes Ba’al who then stabs him with the extraction device and as Jack is dying orders SG1 to get to the Stargate. They emerge into a very cold location which is revealed to be a small freighter encased in ice, the name is familiar to Mitchell but first requirement is to get our of this deep freeze. They gain access to land to find the ship had been trapped in ice but Daniel in the attempt has soaked his foot in water which has brought on frostbite, unable to travel Sam and Cameron leave him behind.
They come across a special ops team under the command of Jack O’Neill and are returned to a US nuclear submarine, Sam is recognised as a Shuttle commander who dies when her craft crashed in the ocean a few years ago and when they find Daniel on the sub they confirm that the timeline has changed. If Ba’al had been able to alter the history of the Stargate use then the SGC and humans would not have had such a strong influence on the galaxy. The added bonus for Ba’al would be that as the puppet master he may have been in a position to make changes which directly benefited him with his knowledge of events and technology present in the original timeline. The US government of this new timeline are not keen on upsetting the apple cart but a year later Ba’al has consolidated his control of the System Lords and brings a fleet to Earth and makes a phone call to the President…
Well what a fantastic way to close out the journey of SG1. The movie was exceptional in production and story terms as well as making extensive use of existing characters even if only used for cameo sake. We all thoroughly enjoyed the movie watching experience and even though Stargate continues with Atlantis for a time and then Universe for a couple of years we left without a heavy heart, Continuum was a good way to wrap things up.
We want to thank Andrew for joining us again for this extended episode and he’ll be back for one or two episodes of Universe. Next week we have something a little different, the new Stargate novel “Kali’s Wrath” by Keith R.A. DeCandido is released on ebook on the 19th of May and we have an interview with the man himself, hope you tune in 🙂
