Mixed bag

Some really excellent stories and narration mixed with a few duds. Would have liked a bit more Doctor Who references as well - some of them could have been any kind of generic SF or fantasy story.

Entertaining little collection

It was a fun collection of classic fairy tales, with a Doctor Who twist. It was neither amazing, nor terrible. I listened to it while working on home improvement projects, so it helped pass the time.

Wonderful stories!

Loved it! It was great hearing the voices of familiar Doctor Who cast! I've been listening in the car and at my desk!

Great tales for fans of Doctor Who

Simply, this is well thought out fan fiction in the Whoverse. For fans, you will enjoy the bits and pieces that you will put together from the Doctor's.

More later as I let the stories sink in and I listen to it again, but with my children.

Another great book by Justin Rivhards

I liked that stories were short. Almost all of them were fun and interesting to follow. Several featured the doctor.

Editing issues

This was a very cute book and well worth my free book credit this month. There are occasional editing mistakes but everything else was excellent. I highly recommend it for children.

For those who are diehard Whoviians

This book is fantastic it is referenced so many times by all of the doctors if you rewatch the series old and new. Many of the things the doctor has encountered especially during David Tennant is “the stuff of fairytales” or “hides in the dark under your bed… Anyway spoilers!!
