Format:Paperback
A nice storyline, well written and presented. Some of the supporting characters are rather stereotyped though, but this doesn't detract too much from the plot. The Eighth Doctor is captured very well here, and the way he bumbles through is very reminiscent of the Second Doctor. However, amoung the lighter moments, the author manages to effectively convey the horror of the destruction of a whole planet. Give it a go and you won't be disappointed.

This book has one tough task... it has to follow up SHADOWS OF AVALON, probably a controversial novel for reasons I won't go into here. Never-the-less, this novel follows up the plot threads started there, and does so very well. All the characters are well done here; the Doctor is a bit careless, though. Compassion's "angst" is very well explored; and Fitz is always satisfying. Nick Walters also wrote "Dominion", and like Trevor Baxendale, he doesn't disappoint.

A bit slow-paced, with much introspection on Fitz's part, but overall an enjoyable adventure. A lot more could have been made of the potential time paradox, and some of the supporting cast are a bit dull, but this is a good read if you like Fitz.

BETTER THAN DOMINION, THIS IS EASY ENOUGH READING ALTHOUGH I TIRE TERRIBLY OF THE SEEMINGLY ENDLESS PARADE OF FUTURISTIC EIGHTH DR NOVELS. THE COMPASSION IDEA IS A GREAT ONE AND PROVIDES THE BEST MOMENTS, ALONG WITH FITZ'S "TIME DISPLACEMENT" WORRIES. AND FOR ONCE HIS REGULAR MONTHLY ROMANCE ACTUALLY SEEMS INTERESTING. ROLL ON THIS SUMMER'S THEMED PLOTS THAT WILL MAKE IT SEEM ALL WORTH WHILE...
