My review is for only Steve Lyons' Day of the Cockroach portion of this double book. My local library's CD for the Mark Morris' Darkstar Academy portion needs cleaning before I can hope to listen to it. I won't bother, though, because that same Mark Morris wrote a book in which a nasty character cruelly killed a nice cat. Mr. Morris had the audacity to not only fail to devise a horrible death for the cat killer; he let him live! Day of the Cockroach finds the 11th Doctor, Amy Pond, and Amy's husband, Rory, in 1982. They have found a body. There will be more bodies amongst the trapped before this adventure is over. The cockroaches were scarier than the ordinary variety. It's a decent horror story with touches of humor in the dialog. http://nwhyte.livejournal.com/1916113.html read by Alexander Armstrong (whose accent is occasionally a bit surprising - his "stall" sounds like "stool" which doesn't quite have the same meaning). All but completists can safely skip this one; the setting is a future-kitsch 1950s public school which turns out rather pointlessly to be In Space, and the Doctor compassionately tells the victim of bullying that he should ruddy well get over it; that will be very helpful to any young (or older) listeners who find themselves in that situation. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

HTML:When the TARDIS is buffeted by 'time slippage', the Doctor experiences a terrible vision of the end of everything. Tracking the source of the disruption, he takes Rory and Amy to what appears to be an English public school in the 1950s. But as the friends are about to discover, there are some very unusual things about Darkstar Academy. For a start the prefects carry guns, and then there is the strange forcefield that surrounds the perimeter. Not to mention the foot-long, crab-like creatures with spiny, armoured bodies... When the Doctor learns the truth about the Academy, he also discovers that the whole place is in terrible danger. But with a swarm of carnivorous creatures on the loose, what can he, Amy and Rory do to help prevent a terrible disaster? Written specially for audio by Mark Morris, Darkstar Academy features the Doctor, Amy and Rory as played by Matt Smith, Karen Gillan and Arthur Darvill in the acclaimed hit series from BBC Television. It is read by Alexander Armstrong, who played Reg Arwell in the 2011 Christmas special The Doctor, The Widow and the Wardrobe. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

Both stories were good, but I’d give the edge to Day of the Cockroach, because the sound effects were skin-crawlingly effective. The title doesn’t lie: there are some nasty bugs in this story! ( )
