Publisher Description

Matt Smith reads this exclusive audio story featuring the Eleventh Doctor and Amy Pond.

Intercepting a distress call, the TARDIS is drawn to a Shinto shrine in medieval Japan, where the Doctor and Amy are met by village elder Shijô Sada. He explains that the ogre-like mannequins surrounding the holy site are harmless guardians, called Otoroshi.

At the heart of the temple is an ancient jade pyramid, so sacred that only the monks may look at it. But the Shogun, the ruler of Japan, wants to possess the pyramid and has ordered seven samurai and a band of soldiers to come to Kokan and seize it.

Whilst the Doctor is tracked by a ninja assassin, Amy discovers what happens to trespassers at the shrine. Soon the secrets of the jade pyramid - and the towering Otoroshi - will be known... Written specially for audio by Martin Day, The Jade Pyramid'is read by Matt Smith, who plays the Doctor in the acclaimed hit series from BBC Television.

"Set in feudal Japan. Samurai, Ninjas, Aliens, and a girl from Paisley. Absolutely brilliant."

    " I have forgotten the exact details of the plot, but I do remember being entertained by Matt Smith's reading. Beyond that, the production values of Doctor Who books are always high, and this provided a great going-to-sleep listen. "

    " Nice! I always wanted to see one of the Doctor's adventures set in the Samurai age. I think the Doctor Who novels are great because they can bring new settings and characters that would otherwise be very difficult to shoot or cast. "

    " Fun! Like listening to a episode of the show. Robots and Ninja! If they could have worked in a pirate and some lasers... Perfection! "
