On first reading, I would prefer him to be the Meddling Monk in a later incarnation. Would seem to fit. Doesn't matter, I guess, could be any Time Lord, though the mystery is built for nothing.<BR/><BR/>Iceberg looks a little better than its reputation, though I'm gonna read some non-Who fiction before getting to it. Just got a pile of Couplands today...Siskoidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08266365376486695812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37940560.post-54248184622922680862007-07-09T12:21:00.000-03:002007-07-09T12:21:00.000-03:00I read most of the New Adventure Doctor Who novels...I read most of the New Adventure Doctor Who novels when they came out. Your reviews would inspire me to reread them but I sold them all off years ago. Instead I've picked up some of the Virgin novels I missed and started checking out the Big Finish audio adventures. <BR/><BR/>Birthright isn't bad, but they never do explain who Muldwych is supposed to be, which really bugged me. <BR/><BR/>Your next NA, Iceberg, got mixed reviews back when it was published. I thought some well done continuity-wank helped it overcome a weak plot myself.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
