sarahbringhurstfamilia's review against another edition
5.0
Someone in acquisitions at my library is apparently as taken by Doctor Who as I am, since I've probably checked out a dozen or more books similar this one, which is a sort of documentary-type book about the series.
This one, though, is by far my favorite. While many of the others are simply character encyclopedias, this book has lots of interviews and reminiscing by cast members about what it was like to be part of Doctor Who, and it's laid out in an appealing scrapbook style.
I admit to skimming some of the earlier chapters, since I've only seen a fraction of the classic episodes, and I'm trying to avoid too many spoilers. But if you wanted a nice overview of the series, including characters, plot(s) and behind-the-scenes, you couldn't go wrong with this book.
