Product Description
The Castor, a vast starship, seemingly deserted and spinning slowly in the void of deep space. Martha and the Doctor explore the drifting tomb, and discover that they may not be alone after all... Who survived the disaster that overcame the rest of the crew? What continues to power the vessel? And why has a stretch of wooded countryside suddenly appeared in the middle of the craft? As the Doctor and Martha journey through the forest, they find a mysterious, fogbound village - a village traumatised by missing children and tales of its own destruction...

5 out of 5 stars Good vs. Evil...   March 5, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Can there ever be balance between the good and the bad within us? Is not harming anybody the same as doing good? Is Evil a lack of good action? Or can you be good when you just keep to yourself?
The story is good, the characters are great, but the soul of this book is the question, what makes up good or evil, can there be a balance or will one side win over the other?

I have just finished reading Wooden Heart by Martin Day and found it a refreshing addition to the Whoventures. Before reading this book I read The Stone Rose, The Resurrection Casket and Sick Building. This was the best of the four. Fantastic plot, great characters and flawless writing made this book, well, fantastic. It was not wracked by the pointlees and sometimes confusing slang that is the hallmark of some of the other writers (Justin Richards or Paul Magrs). The humor of the book takes quite a different angle because of this.

I have read quiet a few DW books, mostly New Adventures, and was wanting to find something similar to those books in the new series. This was as close as I have come.



4 out of 5 stars Take a trip with the Doctor...   October 26, 2007

Wooden Heart is one of the better Doctor Who novels that I've read. It was decent story that had you guessing which way it'd go. It was filled with humor, suspense, and heart. I enjoyed Wooden Heart and look forward to reading the other adventures with the Doctor and Martha.


4 out of 5 stars Girl in Fireplace meets Terabithia   September 15, 2007
 3 out of 5 found this review helpful

This one has the best cover, arguably - Martha does her Alicia Keyes impersonation, while the Doctor has his sonic locked and loaded. I thought this one started off slow, then got rolling as soon as our heroes enter this virtual forest world. The scenes with Martha tend to slow things down, but then the Doctor gets paired off with a litte girl that acts like a mini Rose Tyler and the ball gets rolling again. The twists keep coming even after the halfway mark. Not bad.
