When the aquatic life on Atlantis’s adopted homeworld begins to threaten the city, Colonel Sheppard’s team discovers that the creatures are both intelligent and able to communicate.

Another victim of the Ancient scientist, Janus, the squid-like creatures reveal how they were abducted from their own world millennia ago—and demand Atlantis's help to return home. Eager to assist, Sheppard and his team travel to the creature’s homeworld only to find its indigenous population hostile to the return of their kinsmen. And, to make matters worse, they discover a Genii salvage operation in the ocean that’s not only threatening the creature’s habitat but their very survival.

Facing hostility above and below the water, Weir and Sheppard must negotiate a homecoming for their new friends and peace with the Genii before frayed tempers result in a bloody conflict that could destroy them all…

Join the team for another novella length adventure set after the conclusion of the STARGATE ATLANTIS Legacy series.

Genii up to no good UPS up to no good but one of the things I'm looking forward to in the next novel is the coming attach ship the Asoka but also hoping for next that a new 304 refit the HMS Victory as no word on the UK only unlike the EU or US strain fixing the ship's they have they are taking the current design and upgrading the 304 to Flight III status with a third top side hanger bay and 2 additional sunlight but more than doubling the number of 302s carried to 32 and more Rail guns and 6 to 8 as hard beams making it the most powerful 304 under the Odyssey ZPM and cloak.

Sorry fan side as Atlantis feels soon have 2 ships on station regularly with a 3 in between galaxies that can turn around in a emergency.

But this be a great time with the Chinese already building a new ship and Sun Tzu slowly being restored that should give us 8 ships a 4 by 4 for fleet meaning Colonel Caldwell likely going to be Pegasus Fleet Commander or PEGCOM with 1st Fleet covering Earth and 2nd supporting Atlantis and 3rd off on missions in the Milky Way.

By the way thinking from Hermoid Last Mission the Daedalus can return to the adrift city ship and salvage parts for Atlantis, extra drones and a control chair for the Ancient Outpost bringing Earth defenses back online while also restore the Aroura Tria in the void at New Midway giving us a Battleship of course a battle were to send it of course Pegasus as drives burn out if not in Peg.

So with EU restarting work on there 304 that gives us 10 ships with 8 on missions and 1 in port and 1 under construction.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great classic style adventure set post Legacy.
Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2018

This was such a fun read. This novella feels so much like a classic episode of the show, and I loved it for that, and so much else too. It's just a really fun adventure and felt exactly like an episode would. This is set after the 8th book in the Legacy series, but it doesn't deal with a whole lot of the details from Legacy, and I thought that was a really good thing. Don't get me wrong, I love Legacy, but sometimes the stuff that's set in or after that time frame can be surprisingly involved and a little complicated, especially if you haven't read the books in a while, and so I loved that this could be read mostly as a standalone when you know that Elizabeth is back and only a few other minor details from Legacy.
This deals a little with what Elizabeth can and what she wants to do with herself now that's she's back, and I loved that we got to learn a little more about how she's doing, I always want to see more of her in these books. And it was really fun to see the role reversal that happens between her and John.
The plot involves this new aquatic species on the planet where Atlantis is currently stationed and I loved the Squid people, they were a lot of fun, and I hope we could maybe see more of them in the future. Overall this is just a wonderful lighter quick read and I completely recommend it.

Enjoyed reading this story. This was a short read but follow the Atlantis mission properly. Keep it coming. Homeworld book story line might be a better way to go for a series read but this was a good stand alone.

The Genii are boring. These are basic one dimensional bad guys that are not very smart. The wraith at least have some dimension.

It was an odd story but one any episode could have faced. Would have liked more of Tayla and her wisdom included.

I love these books. It wasn't as fast paced as some and I did not understand why Janus was blamed for creating the wraith because it was Hyperion that was in charge of the wraith experiment. But, I love the characters and finding out more about the squid people and where they came from. This was very entertaining, I enjoyed it very much.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exploring a whole new world

This is the latest book to feature the characters from Stargate Atlantis after the Season 5 finale "Enemy at the Gate". Atlantis has returned to the Pegasus Galaxy and landed on a brand new planet. A new threat emerges during the Atlantis Expedition's exploration of their new home. A very well written story, and a worthwhile addition to the SGA canon.

As I mentioned before it’s a wonderful series of the Atlantis. Continue in a written manner, opening this book, reading new stories about how life can change for all of the people in the Pegasus universe.

4.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable
Reviewed in Canada on January 30, 2019

Overall the book was a good and enjoyable read, so it gets four stars. The characters sounded and felt like the characters, the story was very episode like and the plot was interesting and fun. I found it to be well written and look forward to more books by this author.

Two minor complaints. First, the author claims Janus was the one who created the Wraith but in previous books we learned it was Hyperion. Considering the author was part of that set of books I felt it to be an inexcusable error.

Second, I found the story too short. When it ended it felt like there needed to be more. This could be because I just finished reading the 8 books in the Legacy series, six books cover one story and then two another, AND this was half the size of one of those books. When I thought about it, it ends with the reader being able to make the “off-screen” conclusions but it just felt like it could have been more.

A classic Atlantis romp. Doesnt build much on the events of legacy, but it doesn't need to, it feels just like the old episodes that made up the bulk of seasons

4.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining Stargate Atlantis novella
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 18, 2018

"From The Depths" by Amy Griswold is the latest novella from within the Stargate Franchise and focuses on Atlantis post television series and after the 8th novel in the Legacy series. While the continued growth of the Atlantis storyline is most welcome it is not critical to make this novella work although an alive and well Elizabeth Weir may give pause depending upon how much of the tv show you've seen:) As with most scifi in fact all narratives some things you may just need to accept to really enjoy the story but if you have kept pace with the books published by Stargate Novels/Fandemonium then you'll be right at home.
In this story Atlantis still exploring its new home investigates the behaviour of some large squid like creatures, their ability to alter their skin colours hints at communication and well the Ancients have done some weird stuff as they tried to make Pegasus as they seemed fit.
I'm not going to go into any more detail as the novella packs in a lot of story and while there may be nothing really new here the concept sits nicely into the world view of Pegasus and the Ancients any fan of the tv show would recognise. Elizabeth and John interacting was and remains entertaining and the ancillary characters worked well and who couldn't picture the expression on Jack as his fishing pole went bye bye, a good read for fans of the franchise and Atlantis in particular.
