Customer Reviews

underated by others

I see that most people who reviewed this book thought it was childish and silly. However, it was also clever and creative and very doctor who like in its delivery. In my estimate very underated. What is wrong with a toaster and sun bed that come to life and befriend the doctor. He gives them purpose and sees beyond their basic function. They remind me of thee the misfit toys in Rudolf the rednose reindeer. And who did not like the ending of this book. I thought it was great. Only in a doctor who story would burping be the key to saving the day and the other life forms on a planet. Please read as I don't want to say too much. Basically, because the writer was clever and witty in many silly ways throughout this story I give this book 5 stars.

Surprised

I'm surprised by the amount of people who gave this book low ratings. When I pick up a Doctor Who book, I expect the book to be beyond believable...even to the point of almost insanely silly. Since that was expected in the first place, I just sat back, relaxed and enjoyed the unbelievably crazy ride.

book review

A great quick read i really enjoyed this book It was like watching an episode of Doctor Who. Can't wait for season four to come out on dvd.

well worth the read, 4 stars

The author does a wonderful job capturing the Doctor and Martha's characters in this book. There are references to past episodes, Rose, and the Doctor sings Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen to scare away a monster. That scene alone made the book for me. :-) I enjoyed the book a lot, and I think it's one of the better tie-in novels I've read.
