Daniel Jackson is in custody for a crime and no one believes he is innocent – because of his guilt.
Luckily, one person is willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.
Unluckily, that person is Vala Mal Doran, reformed thief and least trustworthy member of team SG-1.
Can she clear Daniel’s name and help him discover what’s really going on?
A shooting in the heart of Stargate Command is only the beginning for Daniel Jackson and Vala Mal Doran.
Suddenly it’s friend against friend, none of their allies can be relied upon and they’re the universe’s only hope to foil the latest scheme concocted by the last System Lord, Ba’al.
Will Daniel, Vala and a few of Vala’s less than savoury friends be enough to stop a conspiracy that reaches deep into the heart of Stargate Command and threatens to destroy everything they’ve spent years building?
HALF LIFE is the first story in the STARGATE SG-1 SERIES THREE box set, along with AN EYE FOR AN EYE by Sally Malcolm and INFILTRATION by Steve Lyons.
AUTHOR’S NOTES
It’s great to go through the gate once again; when Big Finish asked me to take on the role of script editor for the third series of Stargate audios, I leapt at the chance – and the first thing I did was make sure I got to write the opening episode! Where before we’ve told individual, standalone tales, this time we’re creating full-blown serial stories, and it was a blast to team up with Michael Shanks and Claudia Black once more for Half Life, after I had so much fun writing for them in series one’s Shell Game.
One concept for these new audios was to write the stories like a spin-off series from Stargate SG-1 – essentially Stargate: Danial & Vala! – and it’s been an incredible experience working with talented writers and actors to bring the to life.
Half-Life starts the new series with a bang, pitting our heroes against the arch-villain Ba’al (with Cliff Simon reprising his signature role) and has a sinister-plan to destroy Stargate Command.
Daniel Jackson and Val Mal Doran are forced to confront a terrible event and discover a dark truth that threatens Earth, and everything the SGC has accomplished…
Chevrons locked!
Half Life was re-released in 2022 as part of the 25th Anniversary celebrations for the Stargate franchise, in a new digital compilation titled Stargate SG-1 Series 3 Collected, from Big Finish.
