About the book

For a Good Doctor there's only one rule: first do no harm.

On the planet of Lobos, the Doctor halts a violent war between the native Loba and human colonists. Job done, the TARDIS crew departs – only for Ryan to discover he’s left his phone behind. Again.

Upon returning, the Doctor finds that the TARDIS has slipped hundreds of years into the future – and that something has gone badly wrong. The Loba are now slaves, serving human zealots who worship a godlike figure known as The Good Doctor.

It's time for the Doctor to face up to the consequences of her last visit. With Lobos on the brink of catastrophe, will she be able to make things right?

Featuring the Thirteenth Doctor, Yasmin, Ryan and Graham, as played by Jodie Whittaker, Mandip Gill, Tosin Cole and Bradley Walsh.

    “You know where the Doctor is! Wherever there are people in trouble, wherever there’s danger. Wherever there’s cruelty or intolerance. Wherever there are mad kings and wicked tyrants, the Doctor and her friends will be there to help those who need her the most." I was so excited to read about the Thirteenth Doctor! I wasn’t really invested in the story but it had quite a few good moments. What I think was the most interesting aspect of it was the misogyny the Doctor had to face. I think now that we have a female Doctor, there are new opportunities to portray this issue. Not only that, the story also tackled racism. The portrayal of the characters was on point and loved that Bradley Walsh and The Chase is canon in the Doctor Who universe. I also enjoyed finding out who the Good Doctor was, it was quite a funny mix-up! I really hope Juno Dawson writes another Doctor Who book because I really liked the humour in this book and she portrayed the characters quite well.
