Full Description
The Doctor meets old friends - and old enemies. But which is which - and who is Who? One thing
is sure: they all have a story to tell...
The Story Demon by Julian Richards.
The Doctor and Mrs Clarke find themselves on a forest world where human settlers shelter from
the night in a village built from wrecked spaceships, living in fear of the Birnamen, creatures
who raid their settlement leaving death in their wake.
But are the Birnamen really to blame? Or does the truth lie with the villagers' 'Story Demon', the
hollow travel casing of a very familiar alien creature which they use to entertain their children...
The Key to Many Worlds by Paul Magrs.
The Doctor and Constance arrive in thirteenth century Baghdad and encounter an ageing and
disenchanted Marco Polo. His adventures at an end, he has been ordered to transport a certain
enchantress back to the Doge's palace in Venice. The Doctor realises his danger too late, as his
mind and body are swapped with those of the enchantress - the notorious Iris Wildthyme!
Now clapped in irons and trapped in Iris's form, the Doctor is dragged along in Marco's caravan
as it trails across the desert once more... and only Mrs Clarke can save him.
Inconstancy by Ian Potter.
On the highly regulated colony world of Hoi, the Doctor is captured by the authorities and taken
to the forbidden zone for 're-education'. Mrs Clarke escapes and discovers an amorphous being
in hiding. This protean creature craves purpose and identity, and wants Constance to make it an
instrument of her will. Desperate to rescue the Doctor, she agrees - and suddenly Hoi is
threatened by a swarm of wild and ravenous Mrs Clarkes!
