Publisher's summary

Another entry in our range of unabridged readings of classic Doctor Who novelisations, first published by Target Books in the 1970s and 1980s. Written by Donald Cotton.

Long, long ago on the great plains of Asia Minor, two mighty armies faced each other in mortal combat. The armies were the Greeks and the Trojans and the prize they were fighting for was Helen, the most beautiful woman in the world. To the Greeks it seemed the city of Troy was impregnable and only a miracle could bring them success. And then help comes to them in a most unexpected way as a strange blue box materializes close to their camp, bringing with it the Doctor, Steven and Vicki, who soon find themselves caught up in the irreversible tide of history and legend...

A Doctor Who Farce.

A great audiobook. The story is told not by the Doctor or his companions point of view, but by the great poet Homer. Donald Cottons books have always been the most funniest novelizations of Doctor Who stories. To bad he only wrote three of them. I plan to listen to his audiobook version of the Gunfighters soon. I hope they do an audiobook of his version of the Doctor Who story the Romans soon. I always thought that was his best book yet. Great stuff.

Doctor Who, as told by Homer

The Iliad will never be the same. Stephen Thorne captures just the right tone of ironic detachment in this epic romp.
