Doctor Who and the Genesis of the Daleks by Terrance Dicks

3.0

The first of three books in an omnibus titled The Adventures of Doctor Who - all from the Tom Baker years and all apparently in a row. This one takes a six part serial and reduces it to 140 pages in the paperback and a bit shorter in pagination in the omnibus.
IT is based on a script, so it is pretty constricted, but it has the normal Doctor Who situations, and you can almost tell when each episode of the serial reaches its climactic moments.
A decent story with the Terry Nation script adapted by the Terrance Dicks novelisation.
A fun read, and a tad nostalgic, but perhaps an original novel of Doctor Who would be more involving?
