A story based in the extremely distant future (250,000 years) I thought it was well written and while reading it was playing like an episode in my head. I felt sorry for the humans of Gyre. But what happen had to happen. The monsters in the story were a bit on the silly side, giant slugs with spider like legs ( ) Set during the long night before Amy's Wedding, this is an Eleventh Doctor and Amy story, where they encounter interesting aliens and humans. There was a lot I liked about this book; the Sittun, the gyre, the background to the story, but I felt that a couple of the characters were too obviously just there to be killed off horribly, and a few of the allegories were a little too heavy-handed. Enjoyable but not essential. This Doctor Who New Series Adventures joins Amy and the Eleventh Doctor early on their travels as they're drawn to an enormous pile of space junk known as The Gyre where they encounter noseless humanoids with Arabic names known as the Sittuun, who've also been shipwrecked. The villains of the piece turn out to be primitive humans who believe they're on Earth and condemn those who say differently as blasphemers. There's also a shady character named Dirk Slipstream who is very Douglass Adams. The book takes advantage of its medium in creating settings and characters that would not likely translate well to a low-budget television show, but the story didn't hold my interest too well. The audiobook is narrated by Arthur Darvill even though his character Rory doesn't appear in the story. He does enjoyable impersonations of Karen Gillan and Matt Smith, though. http://nwhyte.livejournal.com/1683000.html One of the first Eleventh Doctor / Amy books, taking the two to a conglomeration of space junk called the Gyre, where degenerate humans, civilised Arabic-speaking aliens and an interstellar criminal are grappling with a bomb, a comet, and a long-lost technological relic. It's for younger readers, but pleasing none the less, with Llewellyn keeping a lot of balls in the air and before bringing the story to a satisfactory conclusion. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
