I'd never heard (or read) Terrance Dicks' 2013 foreward to the re-published "Shakedown" novel. An affectionate, plausible impersonation of his voice by Nev Fountain. One cannot quote Terrance without doing the voice! (This also applies to Gary Leigh and Ken Campbell.) ...Thanks, guys.

These always sound terrific reads. I really must fish my two other editions out of the ether soon.
A good chat with the writer gives a lot of context behind the book and the individual chapters.👍🏿
A fine spotlight on a sometimes overlooked story.

More Carnell, more Uvanov, more Poul, more time in the world that Boucher extended in Corpse Marker, plus some fantastic writing and a few surprises along the way. And why would you think Iago was Avon in disguise? They're completely different people. Completely different.

Our #DoctorWho anniversary week episodes are shaping up nicely! Two completely finished, two more just need readings to complete, one needs sign off, one needs links, and another needs edited from scratch. Oh, and the final book isn't confirmed yet...

A look at the Selachian history is also informative.
