A republish of a conversation about a fun Terrance Dicks romp that ties into the Dreamwatch straight to video Shakedown production.
A smart, packed, sophisticated novel, which gives Mark and I a chance to discuss history, perception and the two can collide dramatically in modern times.
Three important narrators, the end of the war, unrequited love, murder and betrayal...the Earth Arc continues with its most impressive novel yet...
NSFW! A very kinky read, this! Jon and I slip into the world of the sex obsessed Claudia Marwood as she meets a mysterious Byronic stranger and indulges her every kink!
A blissful holiday road trip that takes in wonders, dangers and unforgettable creatures, explores the nature of storytelling, dazzles with wit and introduces the irrepressible Iris Wildthyme...
If you're a big fan of the idea of season 23a, then you're in for a treat! The return of the Toymaker, an old producer, a trip to Blackpool and video games gone bad...what could possibly go wrong?
The talented and all round lovely guy, Simon Guerrier joins me to talk about getting a break writing Doctor Who books, his time editing Bernice books, and gives huge insight into his David Whittaker and upcoming Terrance Dicks books...
A fascinating dive into a book that dishes up a romantically manipulative Doctor, the losses that are suffered during wartime and the psychological horror of facing those demons...
Joe, James, Jason & Ian have a feisty discussion about trains, semen, companion could have beens, a drunk Doctor and some substantial worldbuilding. Can a consensus be reached on the most controversial of Doctor Who books?
Join Joe, Jason, James & Ian as we read and critique the very first New Adventure - and it's a Target novel! Brilliant character insight, dynamic Dalek POVs and continuity heaven.Artwork by Dan Pinn Theme by James LarkReading by Ken Moss
A republish or an interview I conducted last year with the brilliant and imaginative Jonathan Morris to tie into our Anachrophobia discussion this week. Here he talks about all of his Doctor Who books to date.
Appropriately for a story about time going round and round, Anachrophobia gets a second airing on the book club but this time with focus on the Sabbath arc as Joe & Mark continue to explore the time travel horror in the second half of the EDAs...
Another book club tackles a Doctor Who arc in print - the 'Caught on Earth' arc that kick starts with The Burning. The Doctor has no memory, and a fiery force is tearing from the ground to take over the Earth...
We're going on holiday to a Dyson's sphere but there's been a murder...and it's down to the Doctor, Chris, Roz & Benny to figure out who did it. Along the way there is some stunning worldbuilding and extraordinary character development; particularly of Roz and Benny. A true pleasure to read.
A brand new short story, written by Benton & Hawthorne author and member of the Ham Fam, Lucy McCaul. A fun, lively mystery with a sting in the tale. Thank you Lucy for taking the time to write this in the opening month of the Hamster Book Club.
A rich, heady brew of sex, political detail, history, unknowable slathering horror, Gothic atmosphere and the absence left in the universe by the destruction of Gallifrey...but what will Joe & Mark Donaldson make of it...
A popular TV story and novel...but does it hold up all these years later in harsh light of the new series? Joe & Mark investigate...
The best New Series Adventure and the original Doctor Who book that finally gets the Daleks right? Joe and Gareth investigate.
Joe & Michael get political as we talk about the very last, uniquely eighth Doctor New Adventure. To say we are impressed would be an understatement. Reading by Ken MossTheme by James Lark Artwork by Dan Pinn
A rare interview with Lance Parkin where he talks about working for Virgin and the BBC and all of his books - Just War, The Dying Days, Cold Fusion, The Infinity Doctors, Father Time, Trading Futures, The Gallifrey Chronicles and The Eyeless. Michael and Joe ask the questions.
