Book Summary Information

Book Reviews of Doctor Who: The Final Sanction (Doctor Who (BBC Paperback))

Book Review: A no-holds-barred look at war
Summary: 4 Stars

Focusing on the tail end of a war between the human race and the aquatic Selachians, Lyons asks the question, "How far will mankind go to end a war?" With the Doctor, Jamie, and Zoe trapped in the middle of Earth's "solution" to the Selachian menace, we see firsthand just how desperate war can make people.

This is one of Lyons's more "violent" books, similar in intensity to KILLING GROUND and TIME OF YOUR LIFE. It has a strong plot, though, and an excellent (and rare) portrayal of Patrick Troughton's Doctor in print. This book isn't for the easily squeamish, and it's certainly not what one would ever call an upbeat book--but it's well worth reading.
