Doctor Who: Shroud of Sorrow
Doctor Who: Shroud of Sorrow | Tommy Donbavand
10 posts | 6 read | 7 to read
A thrilling new adventure from the spectacular BBC series, starring Matt Smith and Jenna-Louise Coleman. 23 November, 1963 It is the day after John F. Kennedys assassination and the faces of the dead are everywhere. PC Reg Cranfield sees his late father in the mists along Totters Lane. Reporter Mae Callon sees her grandmother in a coffee stain on her desk. FBI Special Agent Warren Skeet finds his long-dead partner staring back at him from raindrops on a window pane. Then the faces begin to talk, and scream... and push through into our world. As the alien Shroud begins to feast on the grief of a world in mourning, can the Doctor dig deep enough into his own sorrow to save mankind?

⭐⭐⭐
Eh, not my favorite but not terrible. It doesn't help that Clara is probably my least favorite companion, and this book does her no favors really. The story was imaginative enough. 11's personality was written well enough. But I didn't feel invested in the story at all.

RamsFan1963 I was never a big Clara fan. I didn't care for her with the 11th Doctor (but to be fair I was morning the loss of Amy & Rory) and I though she had no chemistry with the 12th. 2y
Twainy 👆🏼 I was so not a Clara fan! 😆 I would have hate read this LOL 2y
readordierachel Have to agree with all the other comments here. Clara just didn't work for me at all 2y

I think we may be living through wummer right now. 75° one day, snow the next. Yep, wummer sounds about right.

KathyWheeler I can accept wummer. It‘s 62° here right now; on Friday it‘s supposed to be in the 30s. 2y

I loved the idea of this story but found the writing only OK. Definitely a decent library borrow.

My hometown library switched from Overdrive to CloudLibrary for their ebooks. So far, kind of meh, but I did find a Doctor Who book I hadn‘t seen before, so I guess there‘s that.

candority I prefer CloudLibrary! It‘s compatible with my Kobo, unlike Overdrive. Did your library‘s collection decrease with the switch though? 4y
VioletBramble Did you see that Big Finish has a Captain Jack and River Song story coming out in March? I‘m so excited about this. 4y
rabbitprincess @candority It seems to have fewer of the books I had on my original "read later" list (which was toasted, so I had to rebuild from scratch). @VioletBramble That looks really awesome!! 4y

queerbookreader Is there a figure for Martha Jones? 😲 7y
Laura317 I haven't found one for her yet. Only companion I've seen is Rose, although I've heard Sarah Jane is out there somewhere. @lemonlime799 Martha Jones is much underrated. She is a strong woman and one of my favs. 7y
