expect to be disappointed

Would you try another book from Paul Magrs and/or Tom Baker?

Definately

What other book might you compare Doctor Who to and why?

Hard question..not sure..... but not one of the best Who stories.

Have you listened to any of Tom Baker’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

great performance, weak story

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

yes

Any additional comments?

I thought this was a good story until the very end. Hope I don't spoil it for others because I expected better.

Finally over

The only reason I got these was to finish the story, which was utter nonsense dragged on for far longer than the concept deserved. Save yourself a lot of time and $, and get something else. Big Finish Productions has some 400+ Doctor Who stories, 99% of which (hey, anyone can have a bad go) are much better than these.
I certainly won't be bothering with anything else by this writer.
