Book Review - Doctor Who and the Loch Ness Monster by Terrence Dicks

Wednesday, May 12, 2010

Doctor Who and the Loch Ness Monsteris another novelization of the television series with Tom Baker. Again I say reading these really helped me appreciate the show and The Doctor even more. Although the story is recycled and reads a bit like a script I much enjoy exploring the world of The Doctor in a way I just can't seem to do with the older television series.

For anyone who watches or reads Doctor Who all you really need is the title to tell you the premise but here it goes. Something is killing people, The Doctor and his companions show up, turns out to be an alien plotting to take over the Earth doing the killing, here's the change up it all ties into the legend of the Loch Ness Monster.

I must admit I like the original stories in book form better but overall this was an entertaining read.

This book knocks off one notch on three different reading challenges:

1. Food

2. Plant

3. Title

4. Place Name

5. Body of Water

6. Music Term
