No current Talk conversations about this book. 4,0 ( ) It started out promising but quickly devolved into a boring Silurian story (there must be a story where the Doctor goes to the actual Silurian civilization! That would be interesting!) with characters delivering repetitive didactic lines about the nature of evolution. When Evelyn said, "So that's why they never found a missing link! There wasn't one!" I lost all my remaining investment in the plot. Glorious, glorious: Sixth Doctor and Evelyn meet up with Charles Darwin and Captain Fitzroy on the Galapagos Islands, and - how utterly appropriate - meet up with the Silurians. No doubt the play's account of Darwin's inner dialogue with himself, as brilliantly portrayed by Miles Richardson, would fail to pass muster with real experts but you don't expect utter historical accuracy in something like this. Evelyn and Six continue to be a great pairing, and the Silurians with their inner conflicts and betrayals make a great story. Loved it. no reviews | add a review
The prehistoric Earth is dying. The seas crash and boil as the rain turns to acid. The remnants of the Silurian race place themselves in suspended animation, deep below the surface. One day they will awaken and reclaim their world... No library descriptions found. |
