A strange new cypher is coming out of Germany as the Second World War seems to be ending. Could the Fatherland have one final trick up it's sleeve?

Investigating, code breaking expert Alan Turing and his mysterious friend, the Doctor, find themselves behind enemy lines and in the company of old friends.

As the Great War rages across Europe, in the North Yorkshire village of Hawkswick the local Hall has been converted into a hospital for shell-shocked soldiers.

But all is not well within the village. The beasts in the fields are being butchered where they stand and reports of ghostly men on manoeuvers in the night abound.

Enter the Doctor, an expert from the Ministry. But can he... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (msimpson1964) http://timelord.yuku.com/topic/1978 Wed, 26 Dec 2007 18:42:39 GMT http://timelord.yuku.com/topic/1976/t/About-Time-VI-reviewed.html Which one is this?

And, that is true. But the big question is: Is Remembrance of the Daleks any good as a novelization?

So as a number of members have asked for it, I've created this thread for Random Fiction reviews.

Enjoy.

Welcome to the future.
The early decades of the twenty-first century. All the wars have been won. There are no rogue states. The secret services of the world keep the planet electronically monitored, safe from all threat. There is no one left for the United States and the Eurozone to fight. Except each other.

Um, I get it now.

I finally have an understanding on what makes Paul Magrs tick. He's a button pusher.

Magrs is out to mess with readers minds, fanboys minds and give everyone and everything a V-sign/middle finger and boot in the rear. He does all this to get reactions, which is what challenging writers do.... So, in The Scarlet Empress, Magrs is on a mission to play games with continuity, storytelling and anything else he can get... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (FL86) http://timelord.yuku.com/topic/2004 Tue, 14 Mar 2006 18:35:47 GMT http://timelord.yuku.com/topic/2005/t/Love-and-War-reviewed.html
Despite that this book is to blame for starting all the Time's Champion crapola and the boring deals with Eternals, Love and War is a great book, and Paul Cornell's best.

Why you may ask....

Simple, for once, Paul Cornell lets the story end in the natural direction it starts -- a tragedy. From early on, Paul sets in motion a triangle that will end in disaster.
