Doctor Who: The Visitation by Eric Saward

3.0

A nice straightforward novelization of a nice straightforward TV adventure. I remember this being one of the very first Targets I read as a kid, when I really didn't have access to the TV show. I can see why it pulled me in: the evocative first chapter does a great job of setting up the mystery, and if the somewhat spare prose of the rest of the novel occasionally veers into "he said/she said," there's enough humor and light action to keep it interesting. It has a slightly anticlimactic ending, but otherwise, I think this would be a good book for a kid who liked Doctor Who even today.
