Hurrah! The deadly Daleks are back! Yes, those loveable tinpot tyrants have another plan to invade our world. Maybe this time because they want to drill to the Earth's core. Or maybe because they just feel like it. And when those pesky pepperpots are in town, there is one thing you can be sure of. There will be nonstop, high-octane mayhem in store. And plenty of exterminations! But never fear. The Doctor is on hand to sort them out. Defender of the Earth, saviour of us all.

Trapped and afraid, the Doctor and Charley are forced to play detective to murders with no motive, where even the victims don't stay dead.

In his first-ever Doctor Who novel, Tom Baker’s incredible imagination is given free rein. A story so epic it was originally intended for the big screen, Scratchman is a gripping, white-knuckle thriller almost 40 years in the making. The Doctor, Harry and Sarah Jane Smith arrive at a remote Scottish island when their holiday is cut short by the appearance of strange creatures - hideous scarecrows who are preying on the local population. The islanders are living in fear, and the Doctor vows to save them all.

The library on Kar-Charrat is one of the wonders of the universe. It is also hidden from all but a few select species. The Doctor and Ace discover that the librarians have found a new way of storing data - a wetworks facility - but the machine has attracted unwanted attention, and the Doctor soon finds himself pitted against his oldest and deadliest enemies - the Daleks! Written by: Mike Tucker. Directed by: Nicholas Briggs.
Summary
AlI stock has shot up by over 15 percent on news that galaxy-famous scientist Davros, controversial creator of the Daleks, has been hired to work on unspecified technological projects. Davros has been given the chance to redeem himself. Humanity stands on the verge of a new era, but it needs the help of the galaxy's greatest ever scientist. But Davros is dead...isn't he?
From the bunkers and shelters of ancient Skaro to the gleaming Domes of the Future Earth Empire, Davros has always been a man of destiny. Now he's working for mankind's benefit. But how much do we really know about Davros? Has Davros really turned over a new leaf? The Doctor certainly doesn't think so. But is the Doctor always right?
Written by Lance Parkin and directed by Gary Russell.

Turns a cartoon villain into a character
What made the experience of listening to Doctor Who - Davros the most enjoyable?
A sensible range of characters: enough to ensure variety, not so many that it's confusing who's who.
I was also taken by the amount of nuance. Besides Davros himself, there are people who are ruthless without being evil for evil's sake.
Who was your favorite character and why?
After the Doctor himself, Davros. And this surprised the heck out of me.
I'm quite rare among Doctor Who fans in that I think Genesis of the Daleks - the story that introduced Davros - is pretty poor. Davros dies at the end of his debut story, and I really hate it when characters are brought back from the dead. And honestly, what's he got going for him? He's a man in a mask whose wheelchair happens to be the lower part of a Dalek. And he rants a lot.
I avoided getting this play for years, partly because of this.
But as it turns out, not only is he fleshed out as a character, but his backstory seems much more interesting than it did before. I actually might enjoy Genesis of the Daleks if I ever watch it again. Well, maybe not go that far...
Which scene did you most enjoy?
I especially enjoyed the flashbacks to pre-Dalek Skaro.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Not wanting to give too much away, but there's a moment when Davros does *not* deliver a tedious, "Ha ha I was lying all along, I'm actually really evil!" What we get instead is much more satisfying.
Any additional comments?
This play is primarily for Doctor Who fans. If you've never heard of the Daleks before, this probably won't mean much to you. On the other hand you don't have to be steeped in Who lore to enjoy it.
