connorwhittl3's review against another edition
4.0
For Who: 9/10
Basically everything you want in a Who story, it's exciting, full of tension with a fun, unsettling setting. The Dominators are a fantastic antagnoist for the Doctor, and his interactions with them are some of the second Doctor's most mischievous and cunning moments.
As a book: 5/10
It's still the same Classic Who Formula
For Non-Who Fans: 5/10
It's a really good story, and doesn't require any pre-knowledge, it just doesn't really set-up any more Doctor Who in any significant way.

http://nhw.livejournal.com/763482.html[return][return]This was a very over-padded five-episode story in the first place, and Marter has made it a bit less dull, and injected some of the missing chemistry between the two Dominators themselves - and made them both over two and a half metres tall! He does capture Zoe and Jamie rather well here. But faced with such unpromising material to work from, the result is not up to much.
