I plan on reading the Legacy series after my next re-watch (which might not be for a while). So I'm wondering what are some other well written SGA novels that I can get on the kindle? I had my eye on Blood Ties. Has anyone read that?
Hey, Cody, and welcome to the boards! I hope you have as much fun here as I do!
Aside from the Legacy series, there are some wonderful, standalone novels out there - and since I've just finished it, I can recommend Blood Ties very highly!
It's a really good crossover between SGA and SG1, and if you're a Sheppard fan, you won't be disappointed. He has a great storyline. As a Lorne Lover, I was pretty happy with his share of the action too!!
Daniel and, to a lesser extent, Landry also feature from SG1. The story itself is very well thought out, and the author has a real feel for all the characters.
Others you might want to try are Casualties Of War, Death Game, and Brimstone.
I hope that helps - and if you do get to read any of these, I'd love to know what you thought of them too!

I second what Cate's Corner said about Blood Ties.
Entanglement was also enjoyable and captured my imagination. I felt like I could see the characters in the AU the 'gate team encountered and enjoyed the different technology and the mystery of not knowing who could be trusted.
Yes, there's an excellent standalone book that features Sam a lot. I meant to add it to my previous list, but forgot - sorry about that!
Anyway, it's called Nightfall, by James Swallow.
I enjoyed it very much (lots of Lorne too, so I was happy!!)
Spoiler:
But just to let you know there are a few less favourable reviews on Amazon, saying the characters aren't true to the series, and pointing out some technical errors too. So you might want to read those first. Personally, I prefer to read these books and make up my own mind on how much I enjoyed them
Hope that helps - and if you do read it, I'd love to know what you think!

I bought Mirror, Mirror and Casualties of War in paperback and they are both excellent.
Blood Ties... I didn't get very far into because I didn't care for it. But YMMV, of course.
Was just about to post that. Sadly it's not available for my Kobo yet unless I go through crossroads. Still exciting news. I hope its followed by news of more Stargate novels!
Oh for a book and a shady nook ~ Jules' Book Reviews - my book review site.
