Doctor Who: Forever Autumn by Mark Morris
1.0
I was hoping that this book would be better than the last Doctor Who novel I read which was only okay. But it wasn't. This book dragged on and on and after a while I didn't really want to read it anymore because I became so bored with it. Even though the Doctor's in it there isn't really that much of him which is a shame 'cause he seems to be the best part about the book in my opinion. He has some witty moments here and there but at the end they make him really serious and not very enjoyable to the reader.
One thing that annoyed me deeply was the dialogue that the other characters had. The Doctor and Martha were fine, but every other character was speaking like a British author trying to figure out who Americans talk and it suffers greatly. It takes away the accuracy of the plot (which was equally boring).
All in all, I didn't *hate* this book but it was hard to get through after all the disappointment that I got from reading it. If you're looking for a not-very-well-written "fanfiction piece" about the Doctor and Martha this book is for you. If you have higher expectations like you would having watched episodes of Doctor Who (like I did) then you'll be disappointed.
