Good vs. Evil...
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
Can there ever be balance between the good and the bad within us? Is not harming anybody the same as doing good? Is Evil a lack of good action? Or can you be good when you just keep to yourself? The story is good, the characters are great, but the soul of this book is the question, what makes up good or evil, can there be a balance or will one side win over the other?
3 out of 4 ain't bad

I have just finished reading Wooden Heart by Martin Day and found it a refreshing addition to the Whoventures. Before reading this book I read The Stone Rose, The Resurrection Casket and Sick Building. This was the best of the four. Fantastic plot, great characters and flawless writing made this book, well, fantastic. It was not wracked by the pointlees and sometimes confusing slang that is the hallmark of some of the other writers (Justin Richards or Paul Magrs). The humor of the book takes quite a different angle because of this. I have read quiet a few DW books, mostly New Adventures, and was wanting to find something similar to those books in the new series. This was as close as I have come.
Take a trip with the Doctor...

Wooden Heart is one of the better Doctor Who novels that I've read. It was decent story that had you guessing which way it'd go. It was filled with humor, suspense, and heart. I enjoyed Wooden Heart and look forward to reading the other adventures with the Doctor and Martha.
Girl in Fireplace meets Terabithia

This one has the best cover, arguably - Martha does her Alicia Keyes impersonation, while the Doctor has his sonic locked and loaded. I thought this one started off slow, then got rolling as soon as our heroes enter this virtual forest world. The scenes with Martha tend to slow things down, but then the Doctor gets paired off with a litte girl that acts like a mini Rose Tyler and the ball gets rolling again. The twists keep coming even after the halfway mark. Not bad.
