So there I was in 2020 uploading all my old book reviews, and what a joy to find this collection listed as a single entry saving me oodles of time, which coincidentally is exactly what Dr Who does ...see what I did there? :) As for the books they're a bit, well insipid, having grown up on books on the first 4 doctors by Terrence Dick, Terry Nation and co. these books, I must say, did little to stir my love for the good Doctor. For the record my favourite reads in this collection were the last 2, and my least favourite was The Graves of Mordane. 4 out of 12.

I really enjoyed this series. I have always been intrigued by Doctor Who and as I am unable to watch television due to photosensitive epilepsy, books are my only avenue. This series was a great introduction for me and I am definitely keen to get more.
