Publisher Description

David Troughton reads this thrilling novelization of a classic Doctor Who adventure.

Mud, barbed wire, the smell of death …

The year is 1917 and the TARDIS has materialized on the western front during the First World War. Or has it? For very soon the Doctor finds himself pursued by the soldiers of Ancient Rome; and then he and his companions are reliving the American Civil War of 1863. And is this really Earth, or just a mock-up created by the War Lords? As Doctor Who solves the mystery, he has to admit he is faced with an evil of such magnitude that he cannot combat it on his own—he has to call for the help of his own people, the Time Lords. So, for the first time, it is revealed who is Doctor Who—a maverick Time Lord who “borrowed” the TARDIS without permission. By appealing to the Time Lords he gives away his position in time and space. Thus comes about the trial of Doctor Who …

    " I recently started to read Dr. Who books. They aren't the greatest written books, but like a lot of science fiction, they are creative. "

    " Harlan's introduction was the best part of the book. The rest of it is strictly for hard-core fans who lived in the days before VCRs and DVD players were commonplace. Take the performance part out of Doctor Who, and the fun takes a serious hit. "

    " ONe of the Who books that improves on the TV episode, as it isn't hampered by a cheap special effects budget. The Doctor and JO Grant return to modern day London to find the people are gone and dinosaurs are roaming the streets. "
