Doctor Who: The Nu-Humans
by Cavan Scott & Mark Wright (BBC, 2012); audiobook read by Raquel Cassidy
Another book that captures the whimsical bow-tie flitting of the Eleventh Doctor but none of the underlying substance. Raquel Cassidy is perhaps an odd choice given the prominence of a heavy-voiced male nu-human. [Why the affectation? They’re not ‘nu’, dammit; they’re ‘new’.]
Doctor Who: The Empty House
by Simon Guerrier (BBC, 2013); audiobook read by Raquel Cassidy
Guerrier’s well-executed Eleventh Doctor novelette puts a new spin on some old Doctor Who tropes. (New to Who, that is; in the time-honoured tradition of gothic homage this one is rather reminiscent of Alejandro Amenábar’s The Others, which incidentally featured Christopher Eccleston.)
