Doctor Who and the Revenge of the Cybermen by Terrance Dicks
Revenge of the Cybermen is not one of my favourite Doctor Who stories. It has its charms, but I think it’s quite bland, and it makes the Cybermen just feel like generic enemy aliens. It might seem odd that I … Continue reading

Doctor Who: Empire of the Wolf by Jody Houser
I bought this graphic novel knowing nothing about it other than that the front cover looked cool. Based on that piece of art, I thought it was about Rose Tyler becoming corrupted by the power of the Bad Wolf and … Continue reading

Time Lord Victorious: The Knight, The Fool and The Dead by Steve Cole
The Time Lord Victorious series is an interesting project: it’s a multi-media Doctor Who story arc which encompasses multiple incarnations of the Doctor and is told through books, comics, audio dramas and, probably, other formats as well. It’s really intriguing. … Continue reading

Doctor Who: At Childhood’s End by Sophie Aldred
If I had to choose a favourite companion from the classic era of Doctor Who, there’s a good chance that I would choose Ace. Sophie Aldred did a brilliant job of bringing to life a wonderfully nuanced character, and tonnes … Continue reading

Doctor Who: Transit by Ben Aaronovitch
Virgin’s Doctor Who New Adventures have a reputation for being too dark and edgy. Transit, the tenth book in the series, is perhaps the most infamous for this reason. In fact, it is generally regarded as being quite bad because … Continue reading

Doctor Who: Love and War by Paul Cornell

Christopher Eccleston returns to Doctor Who (via Big Finish)
As anyone who knows me or reads this blog will know, I am a pretty big Doctor Who fan. Though I had seen the classic series as a young child, I think it’s safe to say that it was Christopher … Continue reading

Doctor Who: Nightshade by Mark Gatiss
Continuing my journey through the Doctor Who New Adventures series of books, I came to Mark Gatiss’s Nightshade – a book which, as well as being a new adventure for the Seventh Doctor and Ace, also serves as a pleasant … Continue reading

Doctor Who: Cat’s Cradle: Witch Mark by Andrew Hunt
The Cat’s Cradle story arc in the Doctor Who New Adventures is nowhere near as cohesive as the Timewrym one. They all deal with the TARDIS being damaged (which happens in Time’s Crucible) but are otherwise not connected – so … Continue reading

Female Versions of Male Characters
A common trope in fiction is for male characters to be re-imagined as female characters. To be honest, I think this is a fairly lazy approach to writing female characters. It feels as though writers who employee this too liberally … Continue reading
