Product Description

Product Description

The TARDIS brings the Doctor and Martha to Balmoral in 1902. Here they meet Captain Harry Carruthers - friend of the new king, Edward VII. Together they head for the castle to see the king - only to find that Balmoral Castle is gone, leaving just a hole in the ground. The Doctor realises it is the work of the Judoon - a race of ruthless intergalactic mercenary space police. While Martha and Carruthers seek answers in London, the Doctor finds himself in what should be the most deserted place on Earth - and he is not alone. With help from Arthur Conan Doyle, the Doctor and his friends discover a plot to take over the world. With time running out, who will fall victim to the revenge of the Judoon? Featuring the Doctor and Martha as played by David Tennant and Freema Agyeman in the acclaimed hit series from BBC Television.

5.0 out of 5 stars Note: this is the same link for two different stories; sort it out Amazon!, 9 Dec 2007
By Barney McGrew "Charlie" (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
This review is from: "Doctor Who": Made of Steel (Quick Reads) (Paperback)
Before marking any reviews as 'unhelpful', note that an Amazon error means that this page is for both 'Made of Steel' and 'Revenge of the Judoon'. To circumnavigate the problem I'll include reviews for both books here.

As an English teacher I am well aware of the barrage of criticism aimed at the literacy levels of many of today's children. What you have here is a superb range of stories that waste little time on preamble but plunge the reader instantly into the story and then keep them hooked right to the end; ideal for kids with short attention spans and those who struggle to wade through a full-length novel.
The new series of Doctor Who has thrown up a range of publications that even rival the golden era of the Target novelisations; the 'Quick Reads' range are just one example of these. Following on from 'I am a Dalek' these two entries in the series once again pit The Doctor and Martha against the remorseless men from Mondas, and the brutal space police with rhinocerid heads. Both novellas deliver fast-paced yet intelligent tales that reflect the current TV series and which are perfect for people who 'don't really like reading'.

4.0 out of 5 stars Remember, it's a Quick Read, 24 April 2007
By A. J. Martin (Cambridge, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: "Doctor Who": Made of Steel (Quick Reads) (Paperback)
I think it's worth remembering that this is a 'quick read' which is generally aimed at encouraging kids to read or a few adults when they have the time. For example, I read half of this book in bed last night and I'll no doubt read the other half tonight. For £1.99, you can't really fault that.

With that in mind, yes it is short, but then it is meant to be and i felt that I was reading a 10th Doctor and Martha story. It reminded me somewhat of the 'Short Trips' books that have previously been published for the preceding Doctors. The author has clearly watched enough of Tennant's episodes to know who he's writing about and how to write him.

So far, I've found the story easy to follow, easy to read and it has left me wanting to know what's about to happen.. and that in my mind, is a brilliant foundation for a good book.

3.0 out of 5 stars "Delete! Delete! Delete!", 23 Feb 2007
By dogbarkssome (England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)      
This review is from: "Doctor Who": Made of Steel (Quick Reads) (Paperback)
'Made of Steel' is the 2nd novel in the Doctor Who Quick Reads series, featuring a very brisk story (100 pages of large type) ideally aimed either at children or adult non-readers. This story is a direct sequel to the Cyberman/Dalek war that climaxed the 2nd series of the revived Doctor Who on television, with the handful of remaining Cybermen who are trapped on Earth hunting the Doctor to force him to re-open the Void. A decent mix of light humour from the 10th Doctor and action as the Cybermen take on the army ensues, and while this doesn't quite match 'I Am A Dalek' in terms of new ideas this is still a fair facimilie of a 45-minute TV story. Author Terrance Dicks introduced a whole legion of children to the pleasures of reading with his Target Doctor Who novelisations of the 1970's, hopefully 'Made of Steel' will help some of the youth of today along the same road...
