http://nhw.livejournal.com/1007902.html[return][return]Doctor Who and the Sunmakers is probably the best of these nine Leela novelisations; Dicks clearly appreciated Robert Holmes' script and seems to have really got into the spirit of it. There is an interesting scene in the book but not in the TV series where Leela encounters some elderly workers waiting for euthanasia. Various other minor details are tweaked and basically improved in Dicks' telling of the story.
