Stargate Atlantis: Hunt and Run (Stargate Atlantis #13)
by
Aaron Rosenberg (Goodreads Author)
Ronon Dex is a mystery. His past is a closed book and he likes it that way. But when the Atlantis team trigger a trap that leaves them stranded on a hostile world, only Ronon's past can save them - if it doesn't kill them first. As the gripping tale unfolds, we return to Ronon's earliest days as a Runner and meet the charismatic leader who transformed him into a hunter of ...more

I was so excited when I found out there was a book with featuring Ronon's skills as a runner. Boy, was I disappointed. The story was completely off cannon. Supposedly right after he was made a runner another runner finds him and helps him develop the skills that keep him alive. He spends several years as a team of runners that fight back against the wraith. The whole premise that allows this to work is that when multiple runners are together their tracking signals cancel each other out. [r...more
I was very excited for this book (a Stargate Atlantis novel focused on Ronon Dex, AWESOME) however, in the end, I was very disappointed. This was not the story I was expecting to read.
First, a note about the cover: it was a bit misleading by the publisher to have a picture of Todd the Wraith on the cover though I'm sure the cover artist meant it to represent the Wraith in general. But, since Todd played a pretty big part in the series, he's recognizable to the Atlantis audience and...more

I tried to read this. Gave it my customary 50 page chance.
Normally I'm a pretty easy-going and forgiving reader. But I just couldn't finish this. The characterization was off so much that I gave up. Some of the details were different than what was stated in the show. Teyla started off using contractions and saying things that sounded like John should be saying them. Rodney was really unlikable in this story. Now, he was never my favorite character so I'm not biased about him, but th...more

My review for this is one word would be 'disappointing'. I was looking forward to reading it, as I love Ronon, but I found the characterisations to be stereotypical in a way that makes me think that the author hasn't seen much of SGA. Rodney whines, complains and is a coward. John is the all American hero. Ronon is a skilled hunter, big and strong. I guess I could forgive this if the team camaraderie that makes me love the show had shown through, but no, even that was missing. Consequently, I di...more
If you are a fan of Ronon Dex, then you'll definitely enjoy the story, if offers a peek into his past as a runner. I would qualify this particular book as 'would have made a good episode.' RIP SGA. :(
I was very excited when I heard that there would be a novel that focused on Ronon’s years as a Runner. That time period has always been a mystery to fans, so the novel Hunt and Run: Stargate Atlantis by Aaron Rosenberg had the potential to add to the canon in new and interesting ways. How did this man go from the person we saw in flashbacks to the man we know on Atlantis? The storyline is wide open.

I liked reading about SGA-1 turning the tables on the V'rdai. What I didn't like was the flashback scene that took over more than half the book. The whole time I was reading it, I just wanted to get back to the present.
This book is actually #13.
This is Ronan's story. A backstory of how he became a Runner and his life during the first two of the seven years before the Atlanteans found him. Events at the beginning of the book cause Ronan to tell his story to Rodney while they attempt to rescue John and Teyla from his former friends, who think he is dead. Their mistake. I enjoyed this book.

Slow start, with Ronon's backstory taking up the first half. Glad I didn't give up on it, however.
