Customer Reviews

This CD audiobook features three stories that follow the escapades of Doctor Who written by various authors.

The first CD, read by British actress Meera Syal and written by Jason Arnopp, is The Gemini Contagion. The icy planet of Vinsk becomes the centre of attention when a new handwash holds a dangerous secret that has the power to destroy Earth. Will the Doctor be able to save his friend Amy in time, or will he have to sacrifice her for the sake of the planet?

The second CD, The Hounds of Artemis, is written by award winning author James Goss and read by Doctor Who actor Matt Smith. As the time travelling TARDIS arrives in Smyrna in 1929, the old Tomb of Artemis becomes a deadly trap for the archaeologists excavating the site and a dangerous evil is the enemy for the Doctor and Amy.

The last story in this collection is The Eye of the Jungle, written by Darren Jones and wonderfully brought to life by British stage actor David Troughton. We join the Doctor as he teams up with Amy and Rory in the Amazon Rainforest in 1827. A deadly hunter is the enemy in this tale and its prey includes humans, animals and now a Doctor…

These thrilling adventures really do live up to their name, and this collection of CD audiobooks makes a perfect addition to any fan’s library.
