About this listen

An unabridged reading of this original novel featuring the Third Doctor, as played on TV by Jon Pertwee.

When a boy goes missing and a policewoman starts drawing cave paintings, the Doctor suspects the Silurians are back. With the Brigadier distracted by questions about UNIT funding and problems at home, the Doctor swears his assistant, Liz Shaw, to secrecy and investigates alone. But Liz has enquiries of her own, teaming up with a journalist to track down people who don't exist. What is the mysterious Glasshouse, and why is it so secret?

As the Silurians wake from their ancient slumber, the Doctor, Liz and the Brigadier are caught up in a conspiracy to exploit UNIT's achievements - a conspiracy that reaches deep into the heart of the British government.

Duration: eight hours approx.

Dan Starkey is a talented freak. His Brigadier and Third Doctor are absolutely AMAZING. It's as if the actors themselves are speaking. The only downside is his feminine voices which, quite honestly, I wasn't expecting much anyway. His female Dutch journalist is laughable, sounding more like a male bookie from Brooklyn. That all set aside, I can't say enough about this audio. An amazing story with beautiful insight to the Brigadier and his family life, including a small Kate Stewart. Perfect.

Excellent Narration

This is more two novels in one - a Doctor Who adventure and a spy/government conspiracy a la X Files thriller. The blending of the two does not go down well and there are too many characters and moving parts. Additionally, there is a lot of time that the Doctor is off screen. The violence level is pretty high and detailed. Think X-Files or Fringe more than Classic Who.

That said, Starkey brings the Third Doctor to life and his vocal ability is great.

If you like Doctor Who and want an action packed thriller with X-Files and Tom Clancy thrown in, this is your book. There is a huge continuity issue that could have been easily solved with a better plot but it is what it is.

Not purely Doctor Who
