Well, I've complained bitterly about the inadequacy of the first two annuals of the Thirteenth Doctor era; I'm glad to say that this winter's offering is a step up. The bulk of it consists of summaries of this year's episodes from Season 12 (or 38), but they are nicely done in the form of diary entries from the regulars, and there's also some exploration of how the stories link back to the rest of the show's history. There are also seven pages at the end looking forward to the Time Lord Victorious stories, promising us not only Brian the Ood and the Kotturuh, who have already shown up, but also the Eternals, the Racnoss, the Osirans, the Great Vampires, the Dæmons and the Dalek Empire. No original fiction apart from that, which is a bit of a shame, and some fairly pointless games and quizzes, but I would feel less embarrassed giving this to a young Whovian this year than I would have last year or the year before.… (meer)
