Doctor Who: The Legends of River Song by Guy Adams, Jenny T. Colgan, Jacqueline Rayner, Steve Lyons, Andy Lane
3.0
3.5/5 (average), rounded to 4 stars.
Picnic at Asgard - 3/5
- Good fun, Norse theme park, in-show reference, but a bit boring and clearly written solely for a child audience (I know that's the demographic, still...!).
Suspicious Minds - 5/5
- My favourite one! So much fun, with an Auton Elvis, as well as the Doctor and River. Funny, exciting and a standard Doctor Who tale.
A Gamble with Time - 4/5
- We love a time travel, Back to the Future-esque, paradox story. Set in present day Earth. Also fun, but not the most original. Also love the use of "Dear Diary".
Death in New Venice - 2/5
- I liked the concept of WishCrete and how thinking about bad things happening would cause bad things to happen. But it was just a bit dull, and didn't really show off River's extravagant character.
River of Time - 4/5
- This explored River's prison life somewhat, and also explored bigger themes of the ancient Time Lords' empire. Standard Doctor Who story, but pumped up with the River Song perspective.
