The Other Doctor And The Girl Who Ran Away by Dave MatthewsMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
This book is a bit scarce. Matthews (who maybe should stick to his music) tries to tie in too many characters from other universes and pass them off as his own. There’s also not much of a story as hardly anything gets solved or explained. It just raises more questions to be answered in a later book in the series and it takes the focus away from the book having a standalone adventure. We learn very little about The Other Doctor and his time-travelling companion. These characters seem to be listeners rather than actual characters, as not a lot happens as they spend more time narrating about the past than conversing in the present. That would make sense in a full time-travelling adventure, but not one where the whole story still has a mystery to solve. The book just seemed to be written in a rushed state on the way to the printers without stopping to check for errors. Anyway, now it’s time for me to run away…
