A new Second Doctor adventure.
Great novel. Mrs Wills does a great job narrating the story, she does a lot of funny voices for all the characters. This adventure involves the 2 Doctor, Polly, Ben, and Jamie, getting involved in the aftermath of the English civil war.The tardis crew are separated in the beginning of the book and must fight to get back to each other. The Doctor and Jamie get arrested on thump up charges, they meet Oliver Cromwell and must convince him not to kill them. Ben gets pressed-ganged on to ship with a mysterious mission to Amsterdam, and Polly get tricked into helping Royal subjects rescue King Charles. It's very complicated plot involving Pirates, assignations, and the trouble of young lovers. Great story, i hope they release more stories like this.

Modified Sherlock Holmes
Fist fights, sword fights, mediaeval politics, a well performed story in which Dr. Who is a minor character. This reads more like a Sherlock Holmes novel with a few names changed.

Excellent narration
Books don't always work well as audio books. Too many characters, a performer who lacks the ability to do a lot of voices or has an unpleasant voice...a lot of factors can detract from the listener's enjoyment. This historical Doctor Who adventure could have been a disaster, as there are MANY characters and quick a complex story. I was a little worried that Anneke Wills was chosen just because she played Polly originally. Luckily, she did an excellent job reading Mark Gatiss's novel. The books itself is good, with spies, pirates, and lots of political intrigue set in the days preceding the execution of King Charles.

Anneka Wills is excellent
If you could sum up Doctor Who: The Roundheads in three words, what would they be?
Interesting and authentic
What was one of the most memorable moments of Doctor Who: The Roundheads?
The Doctor being confronted with his book by Cromwell's son.
Which scene was your favorite?
Jamie and the Doctor at the ice market
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes
Any additional comments?
Anneke Wills was excellent. I kept thinking it was a different person reading dialogue, but it was all her.
