PLACE BETWEEN THE. JONATHAN MORRIS. RECOMMENDED. OFFICIAL BBC 'EIGHTH. DOCTOR' PAPERBACK. (ISBN 0-563-53847-3) RELEASED IN MARCH. Imagine a war that. has lasted centuries, a war WHICH has transformed an. entire planet into a. desolate No Man's. Land. A war where. time itself is being. used as a weapon. You can create zones. of decelerated time. and bring the enemy. to a standstill. You. can create storms of. accelerated time and. reduce the opposition. to dust in a matter of. But now the war has. reached a stalemate. Neither SIDE HAS made. any gains for over a. hundred years. The Doctor and HIS. COMPANIONS arrive. at Isolation Station. Forty, a MILITARY. research STATION. on the verge of a. breakthrough which. COULD change the. course of the war. They have found a. way to send soldiers. back in time. But time. travel is a primitive, unpredictable and. dangerous business. And not without its. own sinister side. effects. Jonathan Morris is one of my preferred Doctor Who writers. His many scripts for Big Finish Productions have each been with laden with wit and worry in equal measure, and his earlier novel, Festival of Death , is generally regarded as being one of BBC Books� finest offerings. Anachrophobia , however, is something of an oddity. A cursory glance of its Ren � Magritte -inspired cover is all that�s needed to get a feel for its surrealist tone, but pencils and diagrams are needed to fully get one�s head around the workings of the plot. Whether that�s a blight or a boon is very much in the eye of the beholder. In a nutshell, Anachrophobia is about a conflict where the weapons being used are temporal in nature. Ever since The End of the World , the phrase �Time War� has conjured up images of Bow Ships and Saucers; of Cruciforms and Nightmare Childs. The television series has, probably rather wisely, chosen not to expound upon the mechanics of such a war, keeping. its references as vague and as lyrical as possible. Back in 2002, however, Morris showed no such fear, revelling in the horrors borne of directed temporal weapons. Anachrophobia �s prosperous prose describes soldiers with ancient, withered limbs hanging from otherwise youthful bodies; combatants whose faces have been replaced by clocks, as an insubstantial force enslaves them to its will; and, most chillingly of all, fear of these things running rampant. Indeed, this book�s compound title is an apt one as, within the confines of Isolation Station Forty, Morris� takes the fears of his protagonists and milks them for all they � re worth. The author�s handling of the three regular characters is sublime here, particularly the Doctor, whose newfound frailty is finally given the attention that it has warranted since the removal. of his second heart. What I find so forceful about Morris� rendering of the Doctor is that he. is clearly trying to be his old self � all that curiosity and zeal is as patent as ever it was - but he�s hampered by the almost human limitations that come with having just one heart. All he wants to do is throw himself headlong into the adventure, but he can�t be who he once was - he has to sleep at night, for heaven�s sake. It�s actually quite painful to read. However, the Doctor�s. weakness allows Morris. to showcase the strength. of his companions. Fitz. is dashed heroic here, taking on the mantle of. not only the Doctor�s physical protector, but. his mental guardian too. He tends to his friend�s. needs, but plays those. needs down in front of. him. Anji, for her part, does much the same, showing her true colours after the perfidy of Hope . Sadly (and quite ironically, really) the novel�s supporting characters are a faceless bunch, with the sole exception of Mr Mistletoe, who can�t really claim to be a new character. Furthermore, as I�ve already intimated, the narrative is quite tortuous, rivalling the complexity of Festival of Death but not sharing any of its grace. Matters do not become clear until right at the death, when Sabbath appears to explain to the Doctor � and thus the reader � exactly what has been going on and why. But even despite its gaucherie, Anachrophobia �s coda is tremendously exciting, building upon the momentum that�s been snowballing since The Slow Empire whilst at the same time demonstrating the lengths � and indeed the depths � that the Doctor�s new archenemy will go to in order to achieve his goals, the morality of which is very much open to debate. At least for now� Overall then, Anachrophobia is hard work, but worth it. Deft characterisation and harrowing prose are fused with wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey shenanigans that Steven Moffat would be proud of, leaving the reader with a series of nightmarish images and cruel concepts to haunt their dreams for a long time thereafter.

Having six months pass since reviewing The Eight Doctors has given me quite a bit of perspective on the issue of writing for the Eighth Doctor. The Eighth Doctor is perhaps the Doctor with the largest blank slate when it comes to character development. His line of novels began publishing in June 1997, one year after the airing of The TV Movie , and the Time War as an effect on the character would only come when the series was revived in 2005. All we get is that he’s a hopeless romantic who gets amnesia when he regenerates and during The Eight Doctors picks up companion Samantha Jones for a series of travels. Terrance Dicks focused on a celebration of continuity for his novel, but this leaves Eight and Sam as a blank slate. We know that Sam Jones is a vegetarian and liberal activist living near enough to Coal Hill School while having an overactive sense of justice.

The Society Library (also known as the Black Scrolls of Rassilon) is kept in a random and increasing number of small boxes. It began life as a (reasonably extensive) collection of Target novelisations of televised Doctor Who stories, which were immensely popular in the era before VHS and DVD releases. Freed of the constraints of a BBC budget and special effects limitations, some of them are even regarded by characters as a better interpretation of the stories than the televised versions. More recently, the library has been given a considerable number of original novels and short stories from the the "Wilderness Years", as well as some tie-in novels of the recent series. There are also some non-fiction titles and a couple of audio adventures and DVDs. A full catalogue of the society holdings is found below, sorted by Doctor and alphabetically, and a version can be downloaded as a spreadsheet with filters here. Where possible, each title links to their respective article on TARDIS Wiki. Unfortunately, due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we are currently unable to loan any books out to members.

    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Decalog 3 Consequences by Andy Lane Virgin Decalog. The Virgin Decalog books were collections of short stories published by Virgin Publishing based on the television series Doctor Who : they gained their name from the fact that each volume contained ten stories (although the last collection contains eleven). Five volumes were published between 1994 and September 1997, although volumes 4 and 5 did not feature the Doctor or any other non-Virgin copyrighted characters. This is because the BBC decided not to renew Virgin's licence to produce original fiction featuring the Doctor or any characters featured in the TV series (Virgin transitioned to featuring characters created for literature over which the BBC had no rights). Following this, the BBC began producing their own Doctor Who fiction, including short stories under the name Short Trips . Contents.
