Book Review – Doctor Who: The Official Annual 2016
ByMartin Hutchinson
Hardback by Puffin Books, £7.99
You can’t have Christmas without an annual, and this years’ Doctor Who Annual is the perfect stocking-filler.
The usual things you would expect of an annual are here in all their Gallifreyan glory.
Two linked comic strip stories and a text story featuring The Paternoster Gang (Madame Vastra, Jenny Flint and Strax.
Features are here in abundance, excerpts from UNIT’s Black Archive, and introductions to The TARDIS, Missy, Davros, and The Doctor himself (who in his usual manner tells us NOT to open the book).
There are also loads of puzzled to keep children occupied until well past Boxing Bay.
