Doctor Who: Sting of the Zygons: The Monster Collection Edition | Stephen Cole
6 posts | 5 read
The TARDIS lands the Doctor and Martha in the Lake District in 1909, where a small village has been terrorised by a giant, scaly monster. The search is on for the elusive Beast of Westmorland, and explorers, naturalists and hunters from across the country are descending on the fells. King Edward VII himself is on his way to join the search, with a knighthood for whoever finds the Beast. But there is a more sinister presence at work in the Lakes than a mere monster on the rampage, and the Doctor is soon embroiled in the plans of an old and terrifying enemy. And as the hunters become the hunted, a desperate battle of wits begins with the future of the entire world at stake... An adventure featuring the Tenth Doctor, as played by David Tennant, and his companion Martha

I enjoyed this story. The pacing was good and the Zygons were incredibly inventive and scary. I also liked the Lake District setting and the nod to Doctor Who and the Loch Ness Monster.

I must admit that I picture Mrs Unswick's former maid looking like the Doctor's companion of the same name 😒

Laura317 Probably is. And I‘d die if someone called me their little chickabiddy! 6y
rabbitprincess @Laura317 Ha! Well, this is set in the Edwardian era, so perhaps that was a more common term back then 😂 6y

Monty Python reference for the win ? "What's brown and sounds like a bell? Dung!"

Library TBR for January. The tagged book is due back tomorrow -- I can easily get it done on my commute to and from work 😄

Unrequited Dreams is the stage adaptation of the novel, in case you're familiar with the novel and wondering why it looks so skinny 😂

A mini-haul from the library this afternoon en route to an appointment. I was out from about 12:30 to 4:30, and it snowed the whole time. We're supposed to have 20 cm by this evening 🌨 I will sleep soundly tonight 😴
