I am a huge fan of Ancient Greece, and an even bigger fan of Doctor Who, so needless to say this was right up my ally. I loved the writing, I loved how they twisted in the Greek mythology and all in all throughly enjoyed reading this book

A very lovely person on Twitter bought this book for me & I am so incredibly grateful that they did! I’ve been wanting to get my hands on David Solomons’ Doctor Who novels ever since I first heard about them & I was not at all disappointed by The Maze of Doom. I loved this story so much & I have no doubts that it’s a much better story than some of the adult Doctor Who novels I’ve read. The 13th Doctor & her fam were all written brilliantly & I adored how much attention Graham got in the story because he’s my fav. The writing was also excellent & the story kept me engaged the entire time with humour, high stakes & general Doctor Who brilliance. I really, really hope David writes more Doctor Who middlegrade adventures, & I hope we get some from other authors too!! I hate that I can’t afford a copy of David’s other Doctor Who book whilst I’m furloughed but I will be buying it as soon as I can.

Of all stories from the classic era, I had not really expected The Horns of Nimon to provide material for a New Who novel. (Bearing in mind that even The Smugglers got a sort-of sequel in The Curse of the Black Spot.) Much adventuring for our team in a secret Mediterranean base where dire things are being plotted for humanity and particularly for poor Ryan. Great fun again, not very deep.
