Publisher Description

The evil Master leered at the Doctor, and triumphantly pointed out of the cabin window. The many-tentacled Nestene monster - spearhead of the second Auton invasion of Earth - crouched beside the radio tower! Part crab, part spider, part octopus, its single huge eye blazed with alien intelligence and deadly hatred... Can the Doctor outwit his rival Time Lord, the Master, and save the Earth from the Nestene horror?

Geoffrey Beevers, who played an incarnation of the Master in the classic BBC TV Doctor Who series, reads Terrance Dicks' complete and unabridged novelisation, first published by Target Books in 1975. Geoffrey Beevers reads this exciting novelisation of a classic Doctor Who adventure.

"Another early, old-school, Terrance Dicks classic. He takes Robert Holmes lovely dark-and-twisted version of Doctor Who and translates it exceptionally well into prose. It also comes with one of my all-time-favourite book covers (second edition, natch)...now THAT is a DW monster! "

    " fun good audiobook listening for cruising through DC traffic. It was my first Dr. Who audiobook and I think I'll get more -- it was good brain candy. "

    " A very good story, well narrated, there's more to it then the televised version. Some cracking sound effects, and when Geoffrey Beevers reads the part where the Master is hypnotising someone his voice is electronically altered, it's almost as if the listener is being hypnotised too. "
