Customer Reviews

Great pulp and Leela

The Doctor makes a return visit to a planet of Xoanan the computer. What, don't remember his first visit? Neither does he for most of the book, apparently it was never documented as a story. However, the computer is quite insane and is killing off the small groups of people living on the planet. The Doctor stumbles across a banished Leela early on and saves her life. She stays on with him and helps him out. This is another great story by Dicks with that pulp fiction feel to it. Not a great amount of character development, buts lots of action and adventure. Yet another quick fun read. Enjoy!
