What to expect

An unabridged reading of this novelisation of a 'missing' TV adventure featuring the Celestial Toymaker.

"Slick and polished...immersive productions of much-loved novelisations...long may we enjoy them." - Doctor Who Magazine

Drawn into 'the nexus of the primeval cauldron of Space-Time', the Doctor and Peri are somewhat surprised to find themselves at Blackpool Pleasure Beach.

Is it really just chance that has brought them to the funfair? Or is their arrival somehow connected with the sinister presence of a rather familiar Chinese Mandarin?

Once again the Doctor encounters his deadly adversary the Celestial Toymaker in this adventure by Graham Williams, planned but never made for the TV series in 1986.
