The Doctor all at sea in first trip post-exile,
This review is from: Doctor Who and the Carnival of Monsters (Paperback)
Robert Holmes has often been described as one of the best writers in the history of Doctor Who as a TV series. This story, his fifth, is where he takes off. It is adapted as a novel by Terrance Dicks.The Doctor and Jo are on a test flight in the TARDIS. They arrive on a ship in 1926, where they are taken as stowaways. However, it quickly develops that there is something not right here: the ship is terrified by a plesiosaur, events repeat themselves in a predictable loop, and the passengers cannot see strange metal plates in the ship. And then the ship somehow opens up and a giant hand removes the TARDIS... Where this story is better than Mr. Holmes previous efforts are multiple story strands and the excellent interaction of supporting characters. Mr. Dicks does a utilitarian job in adapting the story, and given the good story it is based on, the end result is a good read.
