This is an interesting Doctor Who adventure. The book certainly has it's flaws, but there are elements of the story that I really liked, especially the elements relating to the Second Doctor attempting to pass a message along to the Seventh.
This story also shows a lot of what they can do now that they're freed from the constraints of BBC standards and practices. The first book in the series amped up the sexuality somewhat to something more frank than pretty much anything that the original series had discussed.
The semi-love triangle between Ace, Raphael and that other girl whose name I can't remember, feels rather forced.
On the minus side, the semi-love triangle between Ace, Raphael and that other girl whose name I can't remember, feels rather forced. Similarly, most of the Panjistri and the Kirithons aren't particularly fleshed out, and the ones who do get some serious development are also the ones who get to be killed off.
Still, fans of Doctor Who - especially fans of the Seventh Doctor, should get something out of this book.
