A review by nwhyte
Doctor Who: The Nemonite Invasion by David Roden
"http://nwhyte.livejournal.com/1286105.html#cutid1[return][return]An audiobook original, read effectively by Catherine Tate. Standard stuff - earth threatened by 'orrible aliens, Donna gets a brief romance, base under siege; what drags it down, unfortunately, is that the base under siege is Dover immediately before Dunkirk, and my suspicion of disbelief is rather shattered by the idea that an alien assault and massive loss of personnel would not disrupt the intricate planning of such a key operation. If you do a historical story for laughs, make sure it is funny; if you do it didactically, as is the point here, you need more verisimilitude than this."
