Book Review: Doctor Who: Ghost Stories

Doctor Who: Ghost Stories by George Mann
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This little bit of nostalgia is a fun way to revisit old friends. The 12th Doctor has not seen his Christmas companions in eight years but as usual appears with a mysterious quest to save the universe. Lives are upended and adventures abound.

The story is told in narrative fashion through the eyes of Lucy whose love and devotion to her family takes center stage. The Doctor is enigmatic as always, never divulging any more information than needed and asking more than anyone is prepared to give.

This was a fun, quick romp through the universe full of questionable physics that drive even more implausible plot lines. For the Doctor Who fan, it ticks all the right boxes. As a graphic novel, it feels more like fast food than literary genius or a masterpiece of art.
