What Is the Story of Doctor Who? by Gabriel P. Cooper, Who HQ
5.0
As a Whovian, one approaches books with caution: will they get it right? Or will they completely miss the mark? Gabriel P. Cooper and the What Is series got it right.
No spoilers (yes, intentional) in this review. What Is the Story of Doctor Who? is a brilliant (yes, intentional) introduction to the origins of the series and the development of the character. It offers a fantastic (yes, intentional) peek into a few of the things that make Doctor Who unique: timey-wimey, jelly babies, weeping angels, cyberman, daleks! And then GERONIMO (yes, intentional), readers reach the end of this book and are given a bibliography so that the now-hooked new Whovian may read even more and be officially welcomed to the fam (yes, intentional).
