It's Doctor Who, it's hard to give it less than 4 stars. But somewhere between 3,5 to 4. It was a fun and quick read. The characters were spot on and it has some funny moments. The plot was fun, but since it was about the weeping angels I was expecting it to be more scary. It was sometimes written a bit childish, but other than that I loved it!Very meh and underwhelming.
As great as The Weeping Angles are, I can't help but feel that they were slightly overused during Smiths era as The Doctor. But what I liked about this quick read was that it also focuses on there victims too. There's some great nods to previous televised stories and a wonderful Classic Series reference too.
I always see Doctor Who books on the shelves when I'm book hunting. I fancied a snappy read so thought I'd try one with the Weeping Angels; my favourite bad guys from the Doctor Who re-boot. The book was actioned packed and just what I was after for a quick read. I didn't think it was well written though, as it relied heavily on the reader having been introduced to the Weeping Angels before (either through other books in the series or the TV show). I still enjoyed it though.
Jacqueline Rayner has a very good grasp on what makes a solid 'Doctor Who' story, and this 'Quickreads' certainly qualifies. The truncated length of these stories virtually ensures they will inevitably be fast-paced, exciting, and with a minimum of padding. That is the case here.The Weeping Angels are by far the most adaptable 'New Series' monster race; Expanded Whoinverse stories in comics, audios, books and short stories featuring them have demonstrated that they uniquely fit within many
Come along Ponds!!!How much i missed hearing this, or in this case reading.I really enjoyed this short story, it has the classic Doctor Who pack of action, mystery and comedy. The doctor with his beloved companions are on vacation in London, but of course, where the Doctor is there's trouble. This time is a magician who uses whipping angels in his act.The story is interesting and fast paced plus the characters are nicely treated. I think i liked this even more since it's about the eleventh
