Publisher Description

Still weak and confused after his fourth regeneration, the Doctor retreats to Castrovalva to recuperate. But Castrovalva is not the haven of peace and tranquility the Doctor and his companions are seeking. Far from being able to rest quietly, the unsuspecting time-travelers are caught up once again in the evil machinations of the Master. Only an act of supreme self-sacrifice will enable them to escape the maniacal lunacy of the renegade Time Lord.

    " A very lightweight novelisation of the Fifth Doctor's first story. Sometimes these novelisations can add some depth to a TV story but this was a fairly slight reproduction that added little. A fun enough way to while away a train journey though. "
