The Bog Warrior

This story was a nice idea, but one that didn't live up to its potential. With respect I think Cecelia Ahern should stick to chick-lit.

A Handfull of Stardust

The current crop of Time Trips comes to an end and they saved the best to last. Jake Arnott's Sixth Doctor tale was a joy to read (and one that was sadly over all too quickly). It's a shame Jake Arnott wasn't writing when Colin Baker was the Doctor because this would have made a great TV story. And it would have been a lot better than the crap Colin has to dead with!

I note that there's going to be two further Time Trips out later this year written by Ceclia Ahearn and Joanne Harris; two writers I would not normally picture writing Doctor Who. This will be interesting.

Salt of the Earth

At last! A Time Trips story I actually enjoyed. Which is surprising considering it's a Pertwee story. But it was engaging and enjoyable.

Keeping Up with the Joneses

This one started promisingly. But by the end it was a muddled mess.

Into the Nowhere

Sorry but I didn't enjoy this. I think it's another example of someone who may be a good writer in other genres, but that doesn't make them a Doctor Who writer.

The Death Pit

I found the first in the Time Trips book series somewhat disappointing. As a Fourth Doctor story I had high hopes for it, but alas. As the Doctor was travelling without a companion I;m guessing it was set between The Hand of Fear and The Face of Evil, but neither the Doctor or the story didn't feel true to the era. And the plot was underdeveloped to.
