Debbie Chazen reads this complete and unabridged adventure for the 10th Doctor.
In 1500 BC, King Actaeus and his subjects live in mortal fear of the awesome gods who have come to visit their kingdom in ancient Greece. The Doctor, visiting with university student June, knows they're not gods at all. They're aliens!
With June's enthusiastic help, the Doctor soon meets the travel agents behind this deadly package holiday company - his old enemies the Slitheen. But can he bring the Slitheen excursion to an end without endangering more lives? And how are events in ancient Greece linked to a modern-day alien plot to destroy what's left of the Parthenon?

"Together with university student June, the Doctor travels back to ancient Greece to stop the Slitheen from whiping out the human race. Fast paced, with a great storyline and a brilliant temporary companion, this is a great Doctor Who novel!" — Gabriel (5 out of 5 stars)
"Together with university student June, the Doctor travels back to ancient Greece to stop the Slitheen from whiping out the human race. Fast paced, with a great storyline and a brilliant temporary companion, this is a great Doctor Who novel!"
" Slightly different from the other 10th Doctor Who novels I've read, as there isn't a companion in it. Instead, the Doctor enlists the help of June, a university student, to help him rid ancient greece of the slitheen. "
" I refuse to open up a shelf for Dr. Who and another for horror. An adequate story set in our world and Ancient Greece, dealing with horrid space invaders and their elimination by Dr. Who. My review may be tainted because I was taking pain meds at the time I read it. Got some nice dreams, though. "
" It has been a while since I read this book, but to me it was a slooow read. I just did not get into it like I have some of the other Doctor Who books. I really like the Doctor Who series but this one left something to be desired. "
" I have just found this book after about a year. I'll have to re-read this as I forgot everything about it. I know this book is good. As all Doctor Who books are. "
" I actually kind of liked this Doctor Who book....played out more like a tv show than an actual read, but good fun nonetheless. "
" This is one of my favorite Who tales... "
" I'll read these while I'm waiting my turn for the Doctor Who DVDs. The books take about as much time to read as it does to watch an episode; contains some dishy David Tennant flavor. Suitable for young readers. "
" A fun book that travels to Ancient Greece where the Slitheen are meddling with history tourism. A nice idea, and the companion figure is well described. I have a feeling though that ths was originally written for a different companion. A decent read, and the Doctor is manic in it. "
