Good story, but great performance by Moffett

What made the experience of listening to Doctor Who: Autonomy the most enjoyable?

Moffett's voice characterizations. I hope she does more of them.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Doctor Who: Autonomy?

When the boy remarks about his mom's dead boyfriend and the part about lady with the hypercard frozen in ice.

Which character – as performed by Georgia Moffett – was your favorite?

Moffett's Doctor was perfect and all the rest of the characters were entertaining.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

There were, but I can't think of them right now and I don't want to give anything away either.

Any additional comments?

I liked the BF audios, but these BBC creations were new to me. I wasn't too sure about the topic either, but I must admit that this one made me hungry for more. Great filler until the Doctor returns to the air. I am so glad I started with this BBC audio first.

Another Who Novel.... another winner!

What did you love best about Doctor Who: Autonomy?

I'm relatively new to the Who universe and when I found out there were audiobook novels available I became interested. I downloaded a couple of them to listen to as I work around my house (when I can't WATCH Doctor Who episodes) and I must say I am greatly pleased. It maintained the feel of the show and helped me imagine a fantastic vision of the story. I will definitely be getting more Doctor audiobooks.

This particular novel had everything a multi-episode arc of the TV Series has. Intriguing characters, fun twists and hilarious Doctor moments. I truly enjoyed it and look forward to more Who novels.

What does Georgia Moffett bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Ms. Moffett did a SPECTACULAR job of narrating the story. Her work was well varied from character to character to bring each one to life and she did an especially good job of holding to Mr. Tennant's characteristics when she performed the conversations of The Doctor. I look forward to hearing her narrate more tales of The Doctor.

I never found the Autons scary... until now

The world Blythe creates in this novel is completely believable and I found his original characters realistic. While this novel isn't particularly scary, I did find the depictions of the Autons actually horrific, something that was not possible to really convey in the live-action show. This book has a strong storyline, good characters, just a hint of timey-wimeyness, and Georgia Moffett nails the characters' voices. It is good, clean, Doctor Who fun!

One of my favorites

Would you consider the audio edition of Doctor Who: Autonomy to be better than the print version?

Read by Georgia Moffet, this story was an exciting and tense adventure featuring the Doctor and some long-time nemeses.

What did you like best about this story?

Moffet is a marvel with accents and her Doctor is spot-on. Her story telling was lively and wonderful.

Which character – as performed by Georgia Moffett – was your favorite?

The Doctor, of course.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I laughed out loud several times. There's one line by the Doctor in particular, but I don't want to spoil it.

Fantastic Story

Georgia Moffett-Tennant is a wonderful narrator! I had a giggle at the voice of the teenage girl, who sounded a wee bit like “Lauren” - I imagine hanging out with Catherine Tate will rub off on you a bit...
Enjoyed this story very much!!
