A planet for a museum housing the Last Ones - the last of every species throughout the universe, run by Eve who sets her sights on the last of the Time Lords...
Beginning with the tale of the dodo, it's quite saddening as we find ourselves in a museum full of the last of every species, some we know and some are yet to come. The Doctor and Martha end up in this enormous museum and the Doctor isn't impressed with what's on display. Soon they discover a plan afoot and the sinister side to the exhibits as they're pulled into the mystery of the missing Last Ones and discover a lot more than they bargained for.
An interesting story but with a few details I wouldn't attribute to the Doctor or Martha, mainly in how they say things. It's quick and easy to read with some engaging facts about different species interspersed throughout. It's quite intriguing to read things from Martha's perspective throughout the book and how she gets on with her book.
I love how it ends - a thoroughly enjoyable story.
