I, Davros - Purity by Andrew Stirling-Brown, James Parsons

nwhyte's review

http://nhw.livejournal.com/994704.html[return][return]Terry Molloy comes back in Purity, to tell the story of young Davros' entry to the military elite and the continuation of the story of his calculating mother, Calcula. Lots of glorious references to canonical Skaro lore, including not just the Mutos from Genesis of the Daleks but also the Varga plants from Mission to the Unknown/The Daleks' Master Plan; and the political leader of teh Kaleds is the Kaled Supremo, a very nice touch. The plot is perhaps the least original of the four stories - Davros and friends sent on a mission which is fore-ordained to failure - but it's very enjoyable.

I dunno. They seemed to have decided that they had fully plumbed Robert Graves' novels and could now through some hackneyed "Red Badge of Courage" nonsense in there too.
It's also bad.
