Book Reviews of Doctor Who: Wetworld
Book Review: Cute otters, lots of mud, and one monster.
Summary: 5 Stars
The TARDIS lands on Sunday, a world in which the term wet is an understatement, and the Doctor ends up covered in mud. Well, just not covered in mud, but he has to find help to save his time machine and Martha. Martha will not be pleased to find out they have NOT landed on Earth. She was looking forward to breakfast at Tiffany's. Now they have to deal with paranoid pioneers, alien otters and a monster. Well, the otters are natives of the planet, so the humans are the aliens, but you get the picture.
Humor, in the form of bad puns, horror, and lots of mud. Tons of it. Ponds of it. Hills of it. It gets into everything. Once again, you get the picture.
Worth a once over and maybe even a second read a few years down the line. Relaxing, comfortable, not too much in the way of gore or conflict, but the Doctor isn't about that kind of stuff. So get it used or new, but get it.
Summary of Doctor Who: Wetworld
When the TARDIS makes a disastrous landing in the swamps of the planet Sunday, the Doctor has no choice but to abandon Martha and try to find help. But the tranquility of Sunday's swamps is deceptive, and even the TARDIS can't protect Martha forever. The human pioneers of Sunday have their own dangers to face: homeless and alone, they're only just starting to realise that Sunday's wildlife isn't as harmless as it first seems. Why are the native otters behaving so strangely, and what is the creature in the swamps that is so interested in the humans, and the new arrivals? The Doctor and Martha must fight to ensure that human intelligence doesn't become the greatest danger of all.Movie Tie-Ins Books
