The Art of destruction review

hello Whovians the Doctor brought me back, thankfully a mere day after we left, though technically it's been several for me and the Doctor, welllll...anyway. today I give to you a review of  The Art of Destruction by Stephen Cole


The Art Of Destruction
Stephen Cole

The TARDIS lands in 22nd century Africa in the shadow of a dormant volcano. Agri-teams are growing new foodstuffs in the baking soil to help feed the world's starving millions - but the Doctor and Rose have detected an alien signal somewhere close by. When a nightmare force starts surging along the dark volcanic tunnels, the Doctor realizes an ancient trap has been sprung. But who was it meant for? And what is the secret of the eerie statues that stand at the heart of the volcano? Dragged into a centuries-old conflict, Rose and the Doctor are soon elevating survival to an art form - as ancient, alien hands practice arts of destruction all around them...



alright so we're all accustom to watching the doctor in his many regenerations running across our TV screens but not many are used to him running across the pages having his legendary adventures with his different companions by his side protecting the earth from the unseen dangers that lurk above us in the stars this certain adventure takes place years into our future that involves gold, Africans and of course aliens. the moment the TARDIS lands in the fields of Africa in the distant future I found myself pulled in and running along side The Doctor and Rose as they try to piece together what is happening. It is very rare to find a TV show that translates well from the screen to the page as well as this book has and I can't wait to get my hands on the next Doctor Who book I can get my hands on. I loved this book and I would suggest it to all of you Whovians that also love a good book and with this little review that I fear has become rambling (not unlike those of a certain Time Lord) I bid you ado those of you who love Doctor Who in the words of the great Time Lord allons-y
