Doctor Who Files: The Doctor


Synopsis-

Who is the 10th Doctor?

Find out all about the Doctor, his friends and enemies, technology and travels, then join him on a brand new adventure in "The hero factor".


Review-

Having read this book myself a few years ago, I enjoyed reading it but met an expected disappointment (as the book's knowlage only goes as far as to the middle of David Tennant's first series as the Doctor). Nevertheless, this book is enjoyable and should not be disreggarded.


Verdict - 3/5

Doctor Who: The Monsters Inside by Stephen Cole

Synopsis-

The TARDIS takes The Doctor and Rose to a destination in deep space- Justica, a prison camp stretched over six planets, where Earth colonies deal with their criminals. While Rose finds herself locked up inside a teenage borstal, The Doctor is trapped in a scientific labour camp. Each is determined to find each other and soon both Rose and The Doctor are risking life and limb to escape. However, their dangerous plans are made complicated by some old enemies. Are these creatures fellow prisoners as they claim or simply staging a takeover for their own sinister purposes?

Review-

I'am reading this book at the moment and I must admit, it is a very enjoyable book. The author of this book has clearly understood the emotion of the setting and the characters and has made this book tie in very well with the "Christopher Eccalston Doctor Who era".

Verdict - 4/5

Doctor Who: Clockwise Man by Justin Richards

Synopsis-

The TARDIS takes The 9th Doctor and his companion Rose Tyler to 1920's London, where which it happens, a (not so human) killer is on the loose. While The Doctor and Rose attempt to find the person/ persons responsible for the strange murders happening in the night, they meet an odd woman who will not show her face and a cat that can return from the dead. It is all connected but The Doctor must find the answer to this dangerous riddle before the whole of London is destroyed!

Review-

This is the first Doctor who new series novel.. so critics have read it with a lot of expectations.. I myself have never liked the 9th Doctor but this novel was enjoyable and at times, intreging.



Verdict- 3/5
