Doctor Who: The Dalek Handbook by Steve Tribe, James Goss
5.0
I LOVED IT!!
I am a total Doctor Who nerd, and a Dalek fan to boot. At first I thought it was weird that I had such a liking for an enemy creature, but as it turns out, I'm not alone. The Dalek Handbook is everything and anything about Daleks, going all the way back to the classic Who (which, sadly, I have never gotten into). This book traces their wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey history from their home planet, into the Time War with the Time Lords, and their rebirth after falling through the void. Any questions you've ever had about Daleks will be answered in this book.
I also learned all kinds of interesting Dalek trivia -- for example, there are Dalek children's books (sadly only in the UK), and Doctor Who/Dalek stage shows. Different colored Daleks have different ranks. All very cool.
Also, the entire book is in color! Lots of fun Dalek pictures and graphics to check out.
I definitely recommend this book to Who fans!!
