Book Reviews of The Massacre (Doctor Who)

Book Review: Steven shines in lost Doctor Who adventure
Summary: 4 Stars

This lost Hartnell story is set in Paris during 1572, the time of the Massacre of the French Protestants. The Doctor disappears to speak to an apothecary, Charles Preslin, leaving Steven to his own devices - which quickly embroil him in political and religious intrigues, giving his character a rare chance to shine on his own. Things get even more complicated when he discovers that the mysterious Abbott of Amboise may or may not be the Doctor himself!

This is a fine example of early Doctor Who, and the audio sounds great, but strangely, the narration falls a little short of excellent - there are a few large patches where the listener just can't tell what's going on, and sometimes the characters are a little difficult to differentiate from each other, but all in all an excellent effort and one which should keep you coming back for future releases!
