You know, I love team-centric movies/shows/books/etc. - but they are so hard to find! I mean, in the TV format, there are my dear and lost SGA and SG-1, then there's NCIS and that's mostly it. In those series, you can feel them being a family: the Xmas episode on NCIS or Sateda on SGA! In other series, it's mostly two people investigating or the team-ness, the whole "the team is a family", is completely missing (Without a Trace, anyone?). But there still are team!shows.
With books on the other hand, it's something completely different *sigh* You can dig and dig and dig and you mostly come up with romances or lonely PIs or something similar. That's why I totally fell under the spell of Stargate tie-in novels - the team is there! But try and find an original book with a similar premise and you bomb.
But! I might try either Mel Odom's "NCIS series" (it has nothing to do with the show!) or Preston and Child's "Pendergast series". Or maybe Wen Spencer's new scifi series? I did love her "Ukiah Oregon" series - awesome characters, awesome team! - and "A Brother's Price", so...
Dear flist, do you know of any good team-centric, "the team is my family" sort of books? I tried asking around but with no luck whatsoever. Puh :(
