This story is amazing. It takes place on a strange planet full of all kinds of creatures. When the Doctor and Donna land on the planet they are in the middle of some kind of battle that doesn't seem to end. It involves humans that turn into large bugs(insects). From Greek myth half human/half horse. And a giant robot that tries to kill all the bugs. It kept me wondering what will happen next. I would suggest any Doctor Who fan to listen to this.

i've listened to tons of the recent doctor who audiobooks, in particular the ones read by david tennant. i've enjoyed most of them, but this one is, by far, my favorite. the story is good, it feels like an actual episode. it's true i'd listen to tennant read the phone book, but this particular story has a decent plot, and the doctor and donna are written so well, their dialogue so spot on, i was amazed. there's a speech the doctor gives about weapons at the end that is magnificent. hearing the tenth doctor's voice give it gave me goose bumps. if you're missing the tenth doctor, i highly recommend listening to this book. it's a bit overpriced imo, but absolutely brilliant. i originally bought this in 2008, and i just listened to it for the second time. i'm sure i'll listen to it again.

David Tennant's reading is great. The story very typical of the TV series. You see the Doctor running around saving the day. You can see the twinkle in his eye and his serious glare. However, the other characters are never fully "formed" due to Tennant never being able to capture what makes Donna "Donna" or the supporting cast so important to the story line. This would have been a great episode for the show. For the David Tennant or Doctor Who fan who is looking for a nice way to relax and/or something a little different to add to their collection.
