Doctor Who: Time Lord Victorious: All Flesh is Grass by Una McCormack, Lee Binding, James Goss
jjhynes's review against another edition
5.0
A lovely conclusion to the TLV, an interesting multi-media epic that has brought at lot of creativity to the Whoniverse in the last few months.
This book is less stand-alone than previous adventures; I'd recommend the previous book (kind of obvious), the Minds of Magnox and probably the 2nd 8th Doctor audio to get most of what is going on here (and probably Monstrous Beauty but I haven't read that myself).
I was sceptical for TLV, but now we've (sorta) reached the end, I'm really glad it exists. Full of fun storytelling, morally grey protagonists and an abundance of creative SF, this is Who at it's best.

Give me multiple Doctors dealing with their issues and taking the piss out of each other, and I'll be happy.

It’s a slight shame as it reverts to generic Doctor Who tropes... which is an indicator as to where the Victorious storyline is going to end up. But still enjoyable for what it was.
