"I enjoyed this DW adventure because the Doctor and Martha go time traveling in Edinburgh. They encounter a mad professor and his numerous hand creatures. But with some inspiration from Ben Franklin they manage to save the day." — Janet (4 out of 5 stars)

" Another great Doctor Who adventure. It took a while for the story to really get interesting, but the author did a lovely job of capturing the personalities of the actors involved. The story would have made a spookily good television serial. "
" great story i loved the first chapter. "
" The Many Hands is a fun, easily read tale of the Doctor and Martha in 18th century Edinburgh. "
" If the first half is essentially an extended chase sequence on foot, the second half ramps up the pulp horror and is pretty satisfying. Captures the feel of series 3 very well. Some lovely turns of phrase and black humour. The Doctor/Martha period has enjoyed a particularly strong set of books. "
" Doctor Who + Zombies. That's all the "Review" you need. "
" So many Doctor Who books (and I have all the new ones)....a written review is unnecessary for them all. "
" Well written, but nothing mind-blowingly awesome. "
" Doctor Who + Zombies = unarguably cool. "
" So wonderfully creepy and Scottish. It also has the best opening action scene of ANY Doctor Who novel! Dale Smith is one of the most under-rated contributors to the Doctor Who range...he deserves more publicity. "
" middle of the road Who book. Ok but not spectacular. "
" Fantastic very creepy exciting !!! great story !!!! "
" This was actually amazing, I'm completely serious. It was clever, well thought out and very chilling. The description was nice and the characterisations spot on so well done, Smith. I enjoyed it so much. "
" I usually assume that books based off of TV shows are inevitably terrible. But this book surprised me! Dr Who is my favorite show ever and I thought this book was great to! "
" A pseudo- historical in Edinburgh. The characters were loyal to te tv show interpretations. It was ok, but nothing particularly memorable about it. There just seemed to be an awful lot of running about. "
" The beginning was a bit iffy, but by the end I thought it was pretty good. "
" Listened to it in bed last night. Big mistake! Fell asleep (through tiredness, not the story!) and missed the middle section. Will get round to reading/listening to it again at some point. What I did hear I enjoyed. "
" A little slow paced for a doctor who book, but had a great story. "
" rubbish, only for under fives "
" Just what you would expect from a Dr Who episdoe. Fun, easy read, nothing too much to think about. "
" Cheesy and Martha is annoying. If you like the Doctor, don't read it. "
