Excellent Dr. Who stories

Great stories with really excellent narrators! A must for any fan of the new series or old or just anyone who likes science fiction.

A Nice Variety

This selection of audio stories is a nice variety of stories from various different incarnations of the Doctor. I would prefer having a separate audio book for each story, simply to make them easier to find and organize, but the stories themselves are generally good.

Much of this collection is made up of stories taken from the television show, read by the original actors. The short stories, while not lengthy, are a great addition to any Doctor Who fan's collection.

Not exactly what I thought

Great stories, but it took a little took getting used to the format.

The narrators were great as well as the sound effects but it is a collection of stories with no real order. Once I realized that I could really enjoy the book.

Goos, but not great

The TV episodes can be skipped, but the originals are still good enough to make this set worth listening to

Excellent collection narrated by the real actors!

Narrated by the actual actors playing the various Doctors over the years, this is a beautiful and engaging collection of short stories. The narration by the actors is without flaw.
