A good read for grown-up children and children alike. December 2, 2008 Let me say this first: I love these Doctor Who books. ... Right, so now you know my bias, here's my review.
Forever Autumn is a fun read that will keep you hooked. I bought this and another two titles in the series in the airport to read on the plane this summer. However, I couldn't put it down. Even though the plot is not as intelligent as some of the other books in the series, the story is far from bland. With twists and turns encountered by the characters, it will keep you (and your children) hooked.
Something Wicked This Way Comes... November 6, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It's the day before Halloween in the small New England town of Blackwood Falls. Every home is decorated with jack-o-lanterns, ghosts and goblins; the children are choosing their costumes from Tozier's Costume Emporium, and the adults are making the final preparations for the town's annual Halloween Carnival. But Halloween in Blackwood Falls will be anything but ordinary this year...
Rick Pirelli and his best friends Thad and Scott love Halloween. Before they head off to pick up their costumes, they notice an eerie green glow coming from the base of a tree in Rick's backyard. The tree, with bark as black as pitch, gave the town of Blackwood Falls its name. The boys unearth an ancient book filled with strange symbols, and unwittingly set into motion a chain of events that will endanger the entire town.
The Doctor and Martha arrive just as an ominous green mist descends upon Blackwood Falls. The mist seems to be coming from the exact spot where the boys found the strange book. The unnatural fog soon has people in the town feeling uneasy, and the Doctor notes that it seems to be feeding off people's deepest fears. When monstrous creatures called Hervoken begin attacking residents of Blackwood Falls, the Doctor and Martha are the town's only hope. Can they stop the growing threat before it's too late?
This is one of my favorite Doctor Who novels. Mark Morris did an excellent job in capturing the spirit of the television show while still making the story his own. The Doctor and Martha are portrayed very well, and there are a lot of fun references to past adventures. Forever Autumn is a great Halloween read for any Doctor Who fan.
Fantastic September 21, 2008 This is a fantastic book I loved reading it. It is very easy to read with not a lot of complicated characters swirling the book around. Excellent. 5 star.
Doctor Who-Forever Autumn April 25, 2008 Good plot, excellent prose, funny and scarey. I have read most of the Docter Who books and this is one of the best for portraying the Doctor an Martha as they are on TV. The Doctor is jokey & genuinely funny, at the same time thoughtful & eccentric as ever. Martha is nice & sincere. This book is definately One of our favourites.Mark Morris is one of the best Doctor Who writers to date.
