Doctor Who: Terminus by Stephen Gallagher, John Lydecker

nwhyte's review

http://nhw.livejournal.com/1060883.html#cutid5[return][return]As with Doctor Who - Warrior's Gate, we have here a decent enough space opera sf novel which happens to have the Doctor and companions dropped into it. A number of things work better here than they did on screen - most notably, the Garm, which was all too obviously a man in a silly suit on screen; but also the raiders Kari and Olvir, and the sense of corporate greed and despair. One of the better Fifth Doctor novelisations.[return][return]It struck me as noteworthy that both Gallagher's stories put the Doctor and friends at a significant point - Warrior's Gate at the zero coordinates, and Terminus at the centre of the universe.
