A review by slayra
The Beast of Babylon by Charlie Higson

3.0

The ninth doctor is my favourite so I had to read this. The story takes place shortly after the doctor's regeneration when he meets a bright alien named Ali while searching for a Starman. I enjoyed Ali as she transformed from a bored bystander to a warrior while helping the doctor, I felt the Starman was not half as scary as Ali was. Ancient Babylon was a great scenery, but unfortunately everything felt rushed. I really liked the bit in the end when Rose Tyler comes up in a familiar scene.
