Mickey is startled to find a statue of Rose in a museum; a statue that is 2,000 years old. The Doctor realises that this means the TARDIS will shortly take them to Ancient Rome, but when it does, he and Rose soon have more on their minds than sculpture. While the Doctor searches for a missing boy, Rose befriends a girl who claims to know the future; a girl whose predictions are surprisingly accurate. But then the Doctor stumbles on the hideous truth behind the statue of Rose, and Rose herself learns that you have to be very careful what you wish for. Featuring the Doctor and Rose as played by David Tennant and Billie Piper in the acclaimed hit series from BBC Television.

"A fun little story set in ancient Rome. David Tennant's narration is wonderful (as usual) but don't think too hard about the plot or the "science." Or the time-travel logistics. " — Zandra (4 out of 5 stars)

" Couldn't Put It Down, Great Diologe, should have been an actual episode "
" Very enjoyable, very quick read. I'll probably pick up some more from this series of tv-show-based novels. I like that Rose Tyler! "
" My first audiobook! Plot is fun and characterization is spot on. All in all, it's a quick solid read. Bonus: David Tennant is LOVELY reader. "
" Don't think I ever finshed it. I miss layed it somewhere. I really want to read it. :) "
" The only one of the early Doctor Who books I remember, because the story was very good and David Tennant did some god voice impressions on the audiobook! "
" A 10th Doctor adventure read by David Tennant. His "Jackie" is spot on! Always enjoyable to listen to David Tennant read a story. :) "
" Love The Doctor & Rose together & with David Tennent reading---It was great fun! "
" This was a bit better than the last few Who books I have read. It probably helped that it was a book on tape AND that it was read by David Tennant. Tennant makes anything better. He also nailed 10/Rose with his inflections. "
" Ancient Roman silliness, including The Doctor in a toga. "
" The Genie was cheesy and the language was a bit over-dramamtic, but I enjoyed the audio book. Very cliche. "
" Lovely romp through ancient Rome for the Doctor and Rose. Definitely good enough to have been included as an actual script. "
