I had great fun reading this. It felt just like the tv series. I will definatley be downloading more of these. Easy to read and quick. Great for when you are on the train or waiting for a dr's appt.

I am a huuuuuge Doctor Who fan, and my favorite Doctor is definitely David Tennant's Doctor. That being said, if you are not already a Doctor Who fan, this book is not for you. You will be totally lost, because it references episodes in the series fairly frequently.

So, fellow fans. I give this book 4 stars. I definitely enjoyed it, but it does not seem to be at the same caliber as the TV series. For example, Rose comes off as kind of a blonde giggle-box instead of the adventurous, strong woman she usually is. On the other hand, it is spot on when Dalek misadventures enter the picture.

Definitely good for a quick, fun read!

It's a cute little romp through the world of 10. Quickreads is correct, I knocked this out in about 30 minutes.

This was just a quick read, a little over a 100 pages, featuring a Dalek and a broke girl named Kate. Not the best Who book ever, but nice.

I borrowed this book from my local library. The Doctor and Rose plan to go to the moon, but the TARDIS has other plans and takes them to England, where they come face to face with an old foe.

I enjoyed this Quick Read. I could read the words as though they were spoken by David and Billie themselves. I could also definitely see this being a two part series finale back in 2006. I cannot wait to read more Doctor Who Quick Reads.

Felt like a DW episode. The Doctor and Rose were on
Character and the story was just a classic with an “easy” ending.

A good quick read!
