Another audiobook of Doctor Who. This was very much classic Doctor Who and worked great as an easy listen before sleep. ( )

The BBC Audio is from the television soundtrack which leaves a fair amount of detail out. It is okay if you are a Doctor Who fan and know who the characters are but in no way should it be considered a standalone book. ( )

How to deal with an ever increasing prison population? Why, suck the "evil" right out of their brains, of course! And of course, the Master is behind the whole scheme somehow... ( )

As often happens with stories from this period, we lose the action sequences which made the original story watchable and the confusion of the plot is therefore mercilessly exposed to the reader. Three different strands of action (Master/Keller machine; nerve gas nuclear missile; peace conference) all combine here rather confusingly. ( )
