As well as Samantha’s own titles, there are other titles written by friends, and by her husband David J Howe, also available. Please check the store for details, but here are a few highlights.
After defending a space station from a Cyberman incursion, the Doctor and Jamie learn that young astrophysicist Zoe wishes to join them on their travels. To give her fair warning of the dangers she may face, the Doctor places the TARDIS outside time and space and uses a mind projector to share one of their most harrowing adventures…
And so, Jamie is forced to relive his encounter with the Daleks at their most evil and calculating. In a complex plot that dragged him from modern-day London to Victorian times and finally to the Dalek world of Skaro, he endured ordeals that tested his courage, strength – and his friendship with the Doctor – to the limit. He presents his own version of some of those events to Zoe; events that still anger him.
And while fact and fiction blur inside the TARDIS, a malevolent force watches from without. Soon, Jamie finds himself lured from the safety of the ship into dangers that could end Zoe’s travels before they begin – and all their lives, as well.
A CD audio reading by Frazer, of a story called The Piper’s Lament written by David J Howe. This is not a Doctor Who audio, but the story of the early life of a Scottish Highlander, who has forgotten his name, and who has a blank patch in his life that he cannot account for.
It combines Frazer’s reading talents with some excellent sound design and production from Robin Good to create a moving and evocative tale of love and loss.
‘A great tale by David Howe riddled with pathos and the injustice of a man left behind and without the most important thing he possesses, that of his memories … Frazer Hines’ rich delivery on the audio drama is worthy of the script and it is pleasure to hear him talk, to take on the voice of the man cast adrift in his own time but with no knowledge of how he got there.’ Ian D Hall, Liverpool Sound and Vision
‘The script itself is gorgeous, too. Essentially designed to give the character of Jamie a proper moment of rediscovery, it manages to be far, far more than just a string of fan-pleasing references … It is, absolutely, a love-letter to the character of Jamie McCrimmon, and perhaps to Frazer Hines himself, but a carefully constructed letter that manages not to gush. It’s a celebration of Jamie, not just of his TARDIS adventures, but of his character, and of his own personal history.’ Morgue of Intrigue
The CD runs for just over an hour and comes signed by Frazer and David.
Every episode, including some of the special mini-episodes, are analysed and reviewed, and the path of the Doctor’s adventures through the series is charted. From the highlights to the low points, David J Howe considers the show against its broad history both as a viewer at the time, and also with the benefit of hindsight, with a current re-watch of the episodes.
Volume 1 covers Christopher Eccleston and David Tennant’s episodes. Volume 2 covers Matt Smith and Peter Capaldi’s episodes.
A marvellous romp through four Doctor’s worth of time travel … come along and enjoy the ride!
‘It’s a rollercoaster read that will put you back in the days of yesteryear when Doctor Who used to go out on those early spring evenings. It’s a cracking read and one that leaves you wanting to read Howe’s opinions on the Smith and Capaldi years next.’ Mez Burdett
‘Howe’s talents is that he can imbue each review with personality that demonstrates his love of Doctor Who and also highlights his fun side. His writing is witty and this is what helps make the book stand out – Howe’s real passion for Who added into the mix makes for a fascinating and funny book which reflects on the most recent run of Doctor Who in an engaging and new way. This is truly a delight of a book, I would strongly recommend buying it.’ The Consulting Detective
