Description

The TARDIS takes the Doctor and Rose to a destination in deep space - Justicia, a prison camp stretched over seven planets, where Earth colonies deal with their criminals.

While Rose finds herself locked up in a teenage borstal, the Doctor is trapped in a scientific labour camp. Each is determined to find the other, and soon both Rose and the Doctor are risking life and limb to escape in their distinctive styles.

But their dangerous plans are complicated by some old enemies. Are these creatures fellow prisoners as they claim, or staging a takeover for their own sinister purposes?

Featuring the Doctor and Rose as played by Christopher Eccleston and Billie Piper in the hit series from BBC Television.

The ninth Doctor and Rose Tyler accidentally land in a prison system, get separated and imprisoned themselves. While The Doctor has to work in an alien science workshop, Rose spends her days in a prison for human teens. But both of them start to notice that something's not right in the prison. Could The Doctors Raxacoricofallapatorian cellmates have something to do with that?

First Doctor Who Novel I've ever read and I really really like it. Maybe that's just because I haven't watched Eccleston in ages and I really miss him, who knows, but I really got a soft spot for it. The return of the Raxacoricofallapatorians was great, especially since they got a lot more personal, individual characters. Both 9 and Rose are written in character and the guest characters are likeable to some extent as well. Would have loved to see this on screen!

Not badly written, except for the massive body-shaming, but Slitheen and other Raxacoricofallapatorians just aren't my thing. They're my least favourite DW aliens. Also this is way bloodier than the usual DW stuff. I mean, people die in DW all the time. But usually they do it... Well, either cleanly or off camera. Not here. A lot of gore.

Rose's first trip to a different planet couldn't been better! It was fast paced, exciting and we revisited old enemies. Especially great was the amount of imagination when it comes to world-building and alien design (i would love to see Nesshalop in the TV series). Due to the budgetary restrictions of the first DW seasons, the aliens look mostly humanoid, but in the books the authors can go really crazy!
