The writing in the book was absolutely brilliant. it impressed me throughout. However, the plot let it down in so many ways. It was a bad story, well written.
nwhyte's review against another edition
http://nhw.livejournal.com/1033342.html?#cutid5[return][return]This was one of those books which, on rereading, very much lived up to my fond childhood memories. It is funny, witty, adds bags of backstory to both minor and major characters (the account of the Doctor and the Master growing up together on Gallifrey ought to be canon for all interested fanfic writers), substitutes far better special effects on the page for the end-of-budget ones we got on-screen, and is generally a good read. My favourite Third Doctor book so far.

Notes of Nigel Kneale, Grant Allen, and Eleanor Scott are struck, as well as Dennis Wheatley.

This is no simple narration since it is enhanced by music and sound effects. These special additions add to the drama and impact of the story.
