I love it!

The first time I saw The Edge of Destruction I was son confused, because it was so different from the first two stories (yes, I saw Classic Who in chronological order to begin with). But this novelisation is why novelisations exist! Not only does it explain the story in a great and more approachable way, than the sometime too-deconstructed tv-version, but it also goes deeper and give extra scenes, that ties everything together masterfully! And William Russell’s voice is just great for audiobooks!

Four to Doomsday is the worst of the stories, in my opinion – and it is still a 3.5 (neither story nor Matthew Waterhouse fully live up to the greatness of the others) All of which are 4s and 5s in both story and narration.
