Brilliant and unique Doctor Who writing

The list author says:
	"stunningly imaginative, clever and devastating. its 'unofficial' status (being a spin-off from the dr who NAs) gives it an amazing edge, allowing familiar dr who concepts to be reenergised."

The list author says:
	"a mature and beautifully written realisation of dr who outide the confines of the 'kids tv' label."

The list author says:
	"utterly different to 'transit', but equally genius. the setting is on a huge scale and the utopian atmosphere is involving and compellingly original in dr who."

The list author says:
	"although from the spin-off faction paradox series, this is one of the best ever dr who-related stories - densely written and epic in the truest sense, taking place on an enormous canvas."

The list author says:
	"possibly the best NA - certainly definitive, in that it encapsulates beautifully descriptive adult prose (often experimental) with violence and big ideas."

The list author says:
	"wonderfully dark, grotesque and complex."

The list author says:
	"cartmel's writing is gorgeous; a powerfully effective and truly adult dr who novel."

The list author says:
	"big, creative ideas, humour, absurdity - verging on genius."

The list author says:
	"beautifully experimental dr who novella - the dr hardly features, and when he does he appears to be an unknown incarnation, but the story is all the stronger for this."

The list author says:
	"pretty much as perfect as the EDAs get - funny, devious, bursting at the seams with new takes on normally staid dr who mythology. shows what can be done."

The list author says:
	"wildly underated; a 1st Dr story which transcends the conventions of the on-screen period. twisted and written in a pleasingly idiosyncratic style."

The list author says:
	"not quite up there plot-wise, but the wonderful a-chronological plot and rotating first-person narration is unlike much else in the various dr who novel ranges."

The list author says:
	"the opening funeral scene is both hugely sad and a gorgeous piece of writing. wide-ranging and packed with detail and event."

The list author says:
	"gleefully illogical, but with an especially winning atmosphere that draws you in and makes you care what will happen, despite the plot seeming to operate on authorial whim alone."

The list author says:
	"the plot's a runaround, but the characters are all beautifully drawn, and it's nice to have a dr who book almost devoted to the emotional states of its characters."

The list author says:
	"i'm not an enormous fan of roberts' 4th Dr books, but this is a wonderfully enjoyable evocation of the fab 1st Dr, ian and babs tardis crew."

The list author says:
	"very funny play on pulp archetypes, full of ideas, and has a genius twist."

The list author says:
	"another excellent bernice spin-off; babylon is wonderfully evoked, as is benny's perceptively-written love affair."

The list author says:
	"the best graphic novel collection so far; a spellbinding and beautifully mythic fairytale. illusory and unconventional, and one of the best uses of dr who's flexibility."

The list author says:
	"full of great stories (which is no mean feat for these collections). ben aaronovitch! andrew cartmel! philip purser-hallard! lots of great 6th dr stories too, which is always good to see!"

The list author says:
	"more hugely impressive faction paradox. dense, inventive, meticulously plotted. really compelling, well-drawn characters and period setting. another example of how far 'the whoniverse' can be pushed."

The list author says:
	"written as an almost dialogue-less historical text, this novel recasts the dr as an ‘fallen elemental’ demigod, fighting alongside 18th c prostitutes. mythic, intriguing, and unlike anything else."
