Maybe it's time a devil did what God will not.

In the author's notes at the end of this book he says “this book is whatever you want it to be”. For me it's a never filmed story of Dr Who, think classic Dr Who Philip Hinchliffe era, Tom Baker at his flamboyant best, think Talons Of Weng-Chiang with a little bit of Robots Of Death and a sprinkling of The Horror Of Fang Rock. Everything marvellously over acted, incredibly camp and probably two episodes too long.

ps
Arent is Hodor from Game of Thrones or maybe Brad William Henke, definitely not Bradley Coopers, Tom Hardy or someone of that ilk.

pps
I thought this was much better than 7 deaths, much much better. Can't wait to see what Mr Turton does next.
