The enemy within...

When the Tok'ra ask SG-1 to save a tortured creature from the clutches of Apophis, how can they refuse? But the Mujina is no ordinary being - devoid of face or form, it draws its identity from those around it. All things to all people, it is a creature with terrible potential - for both good and evil.

Their pursuit of the Mujina takes the team to a nightmarish world where human wickedness is at its worst - and there, the creature finds its home. Captured by the ethnically pure Corvani, Colonel O'Neill's team must confront the planet's insane leader, the Raven King, as well as a more familiar and insidious enemy.

1. i did not finish this book. i stopped after 40-ish pages.
2. according this stargate fandom wiki, it is the first of a trilogy & the other two were not published.

i just could not wrap my brain around why the mujina was a bad thing. because it could be used to represent a god?

then there was what would become the man thing (i presume) of the trilogy; a planet with a nut who's the leader of a group who believe they are the racial superior to another group on the planet. the two plot points would converge and go from there, but i was not feeling it at all and that is why i quit. i would give this book a half a star if that were possible.
