Stargate: The Ark of Truth (2008)
The lines have been drawn. The battle has been waged. Only one thing can save us...
SG-1 searches for an ancient weapon which could help them defeat the Ori, and discover it may be in the Ori's own home galaxy. As the Ori prepare to send ships through to the Milky Way to attack Earth, SG-1 travels to the Ori galaxy aboard the Odyssey. The International Oversight committee have their own plans and SG-1 finds themselves in a distant galaxy fighting two powerful enemies.
In Stargate: The Ark of Truth, consciousness is carried by aliens — a plane of “interstellar religious war”. The story fights on E9/E13 of the E0–E14 reality ladder, compressing faith, war, colonialism, power, technology.
