Why this should be read: An interesting look at the very early days of the Tok'ra (since before the Tok'ra existed), and why some of them - especially Jolinar and Egeria - became Tok'ra. I really love background fic, and this gives a wonderful account of not only Jolinar's early life and how she became a Tok'ra, but also shows much about Goa'uld society.
( Jolinar and her first host talking. )
This story has sequels (Undercover - the Life of a Tok'ra Operative) and (The Fall of Setona). The first of these follows Jolinar as a Tok'ra undercover operative, the other is background for Martouf, and how he became Lantash's host. Both of those have a minor amount of romance at the end (canon ship - Jolinar/Lantash).
