nwhyte's review against another edition
"http://nwhyte.livejournal.com/1335947.html?#cutid1[return][return]I am relieved to report that King of Terror is the best Doctor Who book I have read by Keith Topping. This is faint praise, because I really did not like either Byzantium! or Ghost Ship. The prose style seemed a bit more under control here, though it still isn't a very good book: lots of gratuitous violence, rather improbable scenes not quite involving sex (separately) for Tegan and Turlough, and peculiar unexplained irrelevancies like the Doctor's dislike of the CIA, and Tegan's future marriage to the rock-star son of Ian and Barbara. One to skip."
