Lalla Ward reads this thrilling novelisation of a classic Doctor Who adventure.
David Fisher was approached by script editor Anthony Read to
write for Doctor Who and the result was the 100th story, The Stones
of Blood, transmitted in 1978. Fisher first met Read when the
latter was setting up a series called The Troubleshooters in 1965.
Fisher went on to write for Orlando (1967), Dixon of Dock Green
(1969), Sutherland's Law (1973) and General Hospital (1977). As
well as The Stones of Blood, Fisher also contributed The Androids
of Tara, The Creature from the Pit and The Leisure Hive to Doctor
Who. The first two stories were novelised by Terrance Dicks, but
Fisher decided to pen the latter two himself for the Target
range.
Following his work on Doctor Who, Fisher wrote for Hammer House of
Horror (1980), Hammer House of Mystery and Suspense (1984) and
collaborated with Read on a number of historical books with
subjects including World War Two espionage, the Nazi persecution of
Jews and the Nazi/Soviet pact of the early 1940s.
Romana actress Lalla Ward admirably lends her dulcet tones to the
reading

A interesting contrast to its lavish TV original, this is closer to
Fisher’s concepts, and is brought to life well.
