Book description
The Doctor's been everywhere and everywhen in the whole of the
universe and seems to know all the answers. But ask him what happened
to the Starship Brilliant and he hasn't the first idea. Did it
fall into a sun or black hole? Was it shot down in the first moments
of the galactic war? And what's this about a secret experimental drive?
The Doctor is skittish. But if Martha is so keen to find out he'll
land the TARDIS on the Brilliant, a few days before it vanishes. Then
they can see for themselves...
Soon the Doctor learns the awful truth. And Martha learns that you
need to be careful what you wish for. She certainly wasn't hoping for
mayhem, death, and badger-faced space pirates.
Featuring the Tenth Doctor and Martha as played by David Tennant and
Freema Agyeman in the hit sci-fi series from BBC Television.
Simon Guerrier is the author of the Doctor Who novels 'The Time

published in September 2008. He lives in London with a bright wife and a
dim cat.
