Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Doctor Who The Scales of Injustice by Gary Russell Doctor Who: The Scales of Injustice by Gary Russell. If there was an era in the history of Doctor Who that begged to have a series of novels written while it took place, it's the Pertwee years. Namely because the MAs could go far beyond the scope of what we saw on TV, not only in terms of plot, but also in giving us a unique insight into the private lives and thoughts of the characters we saw and came to know and love on screen. However, most of the original Pertwee MAs were rather pedestrian affairs. It had the 3rd Doctor and his UNIT companions all working together in farily well told stories, but I found myself yearning for me. After all, most of the Earth bound Pertwee stories had the feeling of some time passing betweent them and I desparately wanted to find someone who would fill in those gaps. Gary Russell does that admirably with The Scales of Injustice . The main plot concerns the re-emergence of another sect of Silurians who are bent on conquering Earth. But Russell adds to it an almost X-Files like feel with a complex government conspiracy plotline that is intriguing. And while the main plot is interesting enough to keep the reader turning the pages, the real strength of the novel is character development. Russell gives us insight into the backgrounds of the UNIT cast. We get to see their private sides, from the crumbling of the Brigadier's marraige to Liz Shaw's frustrations at being enlisted to help with UNIT to seeing Mike Yates' rise to being second-in-command of UNIT. Each character is enriched and made much more of three-dimensional character as the story progresses. But Russell doesn't stop there. He brings in some of the more minor UNIT players such as Corporal Bell and gives them a moment to shine. It's a real treat. But, any good Pertwee novel wouldn't be great if the characterization of the Doctor wasn't spot on. And Russell succeeds. More so than other MA authors, Russell captures the spirt and the flavor of the era he is writing for. The 3rd Doctor is vitally important to the plotline and well written for. All in all, this is by far, the best of the Pertwee MAs. BBC books, Virgin, or otherwise. It far outshines even such newly praised works as Devil Goblins From Neptune. If you're a Pertwee fan, this one comes highly recommended. Y'know, I really wanted to beging this review with an old SCTV bit: "I loved it. It was much better than Cat-People. I'm going to read it again and again." Unfortunately, though the second statement is true. The Scales of Injustice is Gary Russell's best book so far. The prose is excellent, the moralistic approach is in character, and the characterization of the regulars is deep and touching. Nevertheless, for reasons I'll mention later, I dragged my way through this novel. What to do. well, let's do my normal review bits. Plot: I hate conspiracy plots. With a passion. That does not change the fact that the plot is very well thought-out, blithely executed, and as twisty and turny as a Mara. There were times where I could read Gary's thoughts as he wrote the next bit. (that's good, btw) The Doctor: See below. Plus, he seemed underused. He may have been there a lot, but most of the time he observed. In Season 7, Pertwee wouldn't have been trapped for 4 episodes without escaping once . Liz: Very well done. Gary ignores Prisoners of the Sun (which seemed more like a fever dream, anyway) and gives Liz a real motivation for leaving. The last few pages put a lump in your throat. UNIT: The Brig is the tragedy of the piece, and it's done with all the pain Gary could muster. Good ties to Downtime. Yates is excellent, but best of all is Benton. Who gets a speech! With whole paragraphs of exposition! Wow! Villains (so to speak): I did have a little more trouble getting into the heads of these Silurians, as opposed to Malcolm Hulke's book. But they're pretty well done. The description of the Myrka as terrifying was the best joke in the book. Style: Similar at times to Who Killed Kennedy (this is not a good thing), Gary's prose flows much better than his other two. I'd like to see more, now. Perhaps a different Doctor. He does a good Malcolm Hulke, too. Where were the interior illustrations? (I know, talk to Andy Lane. ) Why Sean Is Waffling: You gotta understand, I love Jon Pertwee. The man was a brilliant showman, and his appearance at a con I went to was a delight. But if I ranked the Doctors, the third would be at the bottom. He irritates me, and worse, he bores me. That's probably the fault of Barry and Terrance rather than Jon. However, it means a struggle getting through a MA. I took a long time to finish Chris Bulis' book, too. (I'd rather not go into The Ghosts of N-Space right now, thank you). So that was one problem. Then, as I mantioned, I hate conspiracy books. It was one of the reasons I couldn't finish Who Killed Kennedy . (The other being that the protagonist was a complete a**hole.) Thus, a major part of this book was just not my thing at all. But, a lot of people loved WKK , just as a huge amount of people love the third Doctor. So, here's the solution to my dilemma. For Pertwee enthusiasts, X-Files fans, and people looking for a good read: 9/10 . PS: You'll notice I didn't mention the Introduction. You're right, I didn't. And Corporal Bell changes her name after 2 pages. ;-) The continuity king Gary Russell returns with a relatively short but ultimately rewarding Pertwee tale of Silurians. What immediately struck me was the structure of the book, divided into separate episodes each with their own cliffhanger. This makes reading The Scales Of Injustice easier and more interesting. There are criticisms to be levelled here though and the most glaring is the lack of action for the Silurians, attention is heavily focused on the humans. Another is the terrible cover, which doesn`t do either Jon Pertwee or Caroline John any favours. The plot is simplistic, The Doctor tries to make amends with the Silurians, Liz wonders whether her place really is with UNIT, the Brigadier is suffering marital problems and someone is taking potshots a parliament officials. Of course this is a brief overview, but these central storylines keep the plot flowing. Things that stand out would include the explanation of how Mike Yates is promoted over John Benton, and the subtly handled departure of Liz Shaw. Add to this great characterisation and you have the makings of a cleverly written tale. 9/10 . Wow. That was the first thing that came to mind when I finished this fantastic book. It is the most action packed Who book I have ever read. Season 7 is one of my favourites, so I was excited when I came across this book. I was also dreading it because I found Eye of the Giant hard to get through and I never finished it. I'm now glad I read it, because this has to be one of the best MA's ever written. Plot: A well thought out conspiracy that keeps the pages turning, plus it is a sort of sequel to the 7th season story The Silurians. It takes what you saw of these reptiles and expands it making them seem more believeable. The Doctor: Pertwee is 100% perfect here, you can easily imagine him saying every line. Though he is not in a lot of this book there is so much happening that you don't notice and when you do see him the pages just fly by. Liz: Also great here, the book shows her using her brain and doing her own thing. This is good, because Liz was always treated as a lab assistant no matter how smart they made her in the series. Plus we get to see why she leaves. The Brigadier: Was treated really well, and it was good to see the other, more personal side. It was sad to see him lose his wife. At work though he was the same guy we all know and love and I always skipped ahead to see where he would came back into th plot (in fact I did this with all the main characters). Other Unit characters: Benton and Yates were fantastic also, but I liked Benton more as we actually get to see him say more then a few lines. The others were also good, but were not as memorable as the main ones. Villains: The Pale Man was a cool baddie. It was good see his first appearance in Who fiction (the other being Business Unusual). Auggi I found was a bit annoying and I was disapointed when she didn't die at the end (I'm sorry but she deserved it!). Style: This book has lots of action and Mr Russell's writing were just perfect. I also enjoyed the fact that he broke the book up into seven parts, just like the season he was writing for. Mr Russell this has to be you at your best! Overall: I liked nearly everything about this book what more can I say. It's a classic. 9/10. Disjointed plotting But Gary Russell's best book. Grim and sinister. I recently reviewed the perverse, experimental and rather wonderful Man in the Velvet Mask. By contrast, this book represents the polar opposite approach: it's traditional, continuity-ridden, and the writing is fairly mediocre. But hey, what was I expecting? This is a Gary Russell, after all! This isn't a bad, bad novel (I could point to many that are much worse); it's readable, even enjoyable. It is just wholly lacking invention or inspiration. Which wouldn't bother me so much, except this is evidently what people want from Doctor Who novels. I mean, really?! Are people's expectations so low? This feels like less a novel and more an excuse to explain various details from the series that have been niggling our Gary: namely, the Brigadier's family life with his first wife Fiona (all set for Battlefield and Downtime); C19's role in UNIT's affairs (from Time-Flight and Who Killed Kennedy); the circumstances of Mike Yates' promotion to captain (!); the initial encounter between the Doctor and the Triad from Warriors of the Deep; and (more laudably) Liz's final story. It's like, once these boxes were ticked, he then draped an uninspired plot around them. It doesn't help that despite its "traditional" feel, the whole thing is rather mean-spirited; there's lots of drearily wannabe-graphic shootings and decapitations, which are presumably meant to be cool, in a nihilistic way, but which don't actually mean anything and are therefore utterly pointless. The author's note - which amounts to a bitchy rant against the rec.arts.drwho users who had the temerity to criticise the pseudo-science of his earlier MA, Invasion of the Cat-People - doesn't help, starting things off on a slightly uncomfortable note. (It is annoying both when authors wilfully ignore even the most basic scientific principles, and also when readers pick fictional science apart, but, I can't help thinking: they were probably just having a laugh; get over it, Gary.) The idea of alien invasion leftovers being used by the government for its own devices, while not desperately original (and this was years before Torchwood!), has potential. Unfortunately, this is undermined by Russell's lack of restraint: there's barely a relevant TV story which isn't unambiguously referenced. A little subtlety would've gone a long way here! Maybe the author doesn't trust us to work out anything too taxing; the monstrous dog infected with green slime, for example, really didn't need to be called "Stahlman's Hound". There is such a cavalcade of eager, fan-pleasing ideas (look - the base of an Imperial Dalek!), that they become very irritating. Similarly, the book is crawling with unnecessary references to everyone from Sir Charles Sudbury to Group Captain Gilmore, Ann Travers, Ruth Ingram, George Hibbert. Gahhh! Give me strength! Struggling under this torrent of fanwank, the already barely present Doctor seems rather anodyne; he rubs his neck a lot and a few "old chap"s are thrown in, but there's nothing to make this ring true as Pertwee's Doctor. None of this would matter if Russell's prose wasn't deeply underwhelming (there are lots of phrases of the "He felt very hot" variety), and, tonally, it's irritatingly pompous and moralistically preachy. There is even an annoying tendency to reuse already-all-too-ubiquitous quotes (sleep is for tortoise - come on!). Even the title's crap! A book featuring Silurians with the word "scales" in its title. Oh dear. (And speaking of the Silurians: a few names with apostrophes in them doesn't cut it as world building.) Writing this, I feel a lot less well-disposed to this book than I did whilst reading it. It's not hateful, or unbelievably bad. In a way though, it's worse than that for being so depressingly unoriginal. You can really see all the joins; Russell obviously thinks he's allowing us to relate to Mike Yates or whatever, or making the story into a sizzling rollercoaster ride. He isn't. If this were a one-off author, I'd let him off. But this is a man who has had his fingers in all the Doctor Who pies: DWM, Big Finish, and even the new series. We're doomed. ISBN 13: 9781849907804.

Over the course of the half-century existence of the Doctor Who franchise the Doctor has been joined on his many travels by a series of companions. Most last for a period of time, then move on with their lives after some event or development leads to a parting of the ways. On the show this usually involves a formal farewell of one sort or another or, in the rare case when a companion dies, a degree of mournful reflection. Occasionally, however, a companion abruptly disappears with barely a passing explanation and a new companion is introduced to fill the void. Though she was not the first to suffer such a fate there was nobody less deserving of such treatment than Liz Shaw. Introduced at the beginning of the seventh season. as a brilliant scientist she quickly proved to be a more than a capable associate of the newly Earth-bound Doctor, and played a vital role in his adventures. Yet when the eighth season began she had already decamped back to Cambridge, to be replaced by someone new. Gary Russell's novel provides readers with a story of the events that led up to her departure. In it she is drawn into a conspiracy involving C-19, the government department tasked with overseeing UNIT operations in the United Kingdom. At the same time a new group of Silurians emerges near a seaside town, leading the Doctor to embark on a solo mission in the hope of avoiding the tragedies of his previous encounter with humanity's predecessors. Amidst all of this the Brigadier is forced to cope with a shrinking budget and a marriage on the verge of collapse, none of which he can allow to interfere with his job of keeping humanity safe from the extraordinary threats it unknowingly faces. If all this sounds a little busy for a relatively short novel, you would be right. While Russell handles it fairly well for the most part, characters and settings pass through the book's pages in such a rush that they often move out of the story before any sense of who they are is successfully established. Giving the characters more time to breathe might have made for a better book, especially as doing so might have given their many deaths (for a Doctor Who story, the body count is surprisingly high) a greater impact than was otherwise the case. Yet in the end the story itself is entertaining enough, and Liz Shaw gets the dignified departure her character so richly deserved. For many fans of the series, this will be reason enough to read the book. ( ) I think the first Doctor Who spinoff novel I read was Gary Russell's Invasion of the Cat-People, long long ago. I was so deeply unimpressed that it was years before I read another one. Since then, of course, I've become aware of Russell as the host of numerous DVD commentaries and as a talking head on Doctor Who Confidential, not to mention being reminded of his activities as child actor in the Famous Five and editor of Doctor Who Monthly. It's not always a howling success when someone who writes about the genre turns their hand to fiction, but after my recent bout of Serious Reading this seemed like a relaxing option, snagged from the BBC website in electronic form. And to my relief the book is OK. It's basically a boiled together combination of Doctor Who and the Silurians plus The Sea Devils, with flash forward to Warriors from the Deep, plus some back-story about the breakup of the Brigadier's first marriage and what Liz Shaw was really up to in Cambridge. The book also includes a very nicely done farewell scene between Liz and the Doctor, which of course was not shown on screen. The book could pass as an above-average novelisation of a seven-part TV story, which I think is what the author was aiming at, so can be rated a success. ( ) Doctor Who: Scales of Injustice.

This novel was reprinted and released as an ebook on Kindle by BBC Books on 6 March2014 as The Monster Collection Edition . This story retroactively fixes some of the apparent inconsistencies of the television story Warriors of the Deep . Specifically, this story explains how the Doctor knows Icthar and how he knows of the Triad and the Myrka. As in Warriors of the Deep , Sea Devils are called that by the Silurians. This novel makes it clear that their full name is Sea Devil Warriors and they are a caste as much as a sub-species. C19 and Sir John Sudbury are mentioned on-screen only in the television story Time-Flight . C19 was also explored more fully in the novel Who Killed Kennedy . The Myrka, which first appeared on screen in the television story Warriors of the Deep , is used by the Silurians in this story. Continuity [ edit | edit source ] The "Older Silurian", "Younger Silurian", and "Silurian Scientist" of TV: Doctor Who and the Silurians are here named respectively Okdel L'da, Morka and Bokka K'to. Sir John Sudbury mentions Sir James Quinlan's death. (TV: The Ambassadors of Death ) The Doctor mentions using steady state micro welding to repair the TARDIS' dematerialisation circuit. (TV: Terror of the Autons ) Sir Marmaduke shows Morley a UNIT file containing information on Major Norman Baker, Dr Charles Lawrence, Doris Squire, Edward Masters and Phyllis Dawson. (TV: Doctor Who and the Silurians ) has left UNIT to go back to the regular army. (TV: Spearhead from Space ) has married Isobel Watkins and been promoted to Major. (TV: The Invasion ) once interrupted one of the Doctor's experiments involving non-moving air molecules. (TV: Doctor Who and the Silurians ) Captain Walters is in charge of the UNIT hangar which was the temporary UNIT HQ during the Cyberman invasion. (TV: The Invasion ) It was Air Commodore Ian Gilmore who suggested Lethbridge-Stewart, then a colonel, for the commander of the British branch of UNIT. (TV: Remembrance of the Daleks ) Lethbridge-Stewart reflects on how his life changed after meeting with him. (PROSE: The Dogs of War ) The Doctor has told Liz about the Daleks, the Cybermen, the Zarbi (TV: The Web Planet ) and the Drahvins. (TV: Galaxy 4 ) He has also mentioned Magnus Greel. (TV: The Talons of Weng-Chiang ) suggested recruiting her University of Cambridge protégés Allison Williams, (TV: Remembrance of the Daleks ) Ruth Ingram (TV: The Time Monster ) and Anne Travers (TV: The Web of Fear ) to the Intrusion Counter- Measures Group. Rachel mentions Dr Judson and the ULTIMA machine, which was stored at a British Army base in Maiden's Point in 1943. Later in his personal timeline, specifically during his seventh incarnation, the Doctor and his companion Ace would visit Maiden's Point that year and defeat the ancient sentient force Fenric, who had taken possession of Judson's body. (TV: The Curse of Fenric ) Corporal Maisie Hawke mentions that she has sent a Nestene energy unit to the National Space Museum. (TV: Terror of the Autons ) The pale young man tells the Doctor that the Vault contains two Cyber-guns, (TV: The Invasion ) Nestene energy units (TV: Spearhead from Space ) and phials of the Silurian plague. (TV: Doctor Who and the Silurians ) It also contains Mars Probe 6, which Sir Marmaduke recognises. (TV: The Ambassadors of Death ) The Doctor does not recognise what the pale young man describes as one of the Vault's first trophies: "the lower half of a cream-colouredDalek, stained with green and pitted with bullet holes." The Doctor notes that he has never seen a Dalek of that configuration before, least of all on 20th centuryEarth. It was obtained by the ICMG in the aftermath of the Shoreditch Incident in November1963. Later in his personal timeline, the Seventh Doctor and Ace would be present for that event. (TV: Remembrance of the Daleks ) (TV: The Invasion ), secretly still alive (PROSE: Original Sin ), is ultimately behind the conspiracy within C19.
