Status Updates From Doctor Who: Christmas on a ...

Onto my Dr Who books, gonna try to do them every other book, got a lot to get through before I can start Faction Paradox...

From the intro of Roz and Chris, up to The Dying Days, we have perhaps the strangest, easiest to ignore period in the Doctor’s history (I take these books as ‘Casually Canon, Kind Of’). Anyway, the Doctor appeared a bit less on the covers of his own books, I think because the BBC was ready to sweep away the old, and make sure people focused on a new look. Plus, Virgin Books would work a Doctor-less spinoff, soon…

Alright! This time around, with any of these books, I know how to pronounce ‘Cwej’. Plus, I get to revisit Roz - a favourite of mine, even in Oblivion, where Roz wasn’t really Roz but the return of Sgloomi Po, another fave, made it all worthwhile. What else? The 7th Doctor is MY Doctor, though he pulls a bit of Miss Silver, often, in novels from this period, and isn’t around much.
