Book Reviews of Doctor Who: The Evil of the Daleks (Target Doctor Who Library)

Book Review: An excellent addition to the canon
Summary: 5 Stars

When the TARDIS is stolen from Gatwick Airport, the Doctor and Jamie must sleuth out who took it and where. However, the TARDIS is merely bait, to draw the Doctor and Jamie into a trap. Transported back to the 1860s, the intrepid duo finds themselves prisoners of the Daleks. The Daleks have grown tired of being defeated by the detestable humans, and they want the Doctor to give them the "human factor" that will allow them to finally triumph. What will the Doctor do, and what will be the result?

"The Evil of the Daleks," starring Patrick Troughton, was first aired in 1967. Shortly thereafter, the original video recordings were wiped, destroying this program for all time. However, when it was first aired, some fans had made audio recordings of the episodes, and in 1993 this novel was produced from the soundtrack.

This story introduces Victoria Waterfield to the Doctor, and is an excellent addition to the canon. It has great action in it, with the Daleks being excellently done, made even scarier than they are in the television show. Even having heard the audiobook version of the soundtrack, this book is a great addition, adding some detail and depth to the story. I really enjoyed this book and highly recommend it.
