Doctor Who: Ghosts of India by Mark Morris

4.0

I really enjoyed this book. India just after the second world war is masterfully depicted, with the hope, mystery and exuberance nicely balanced against the ominous clouds of coming strife with partition. The adventure has a good blend of villains, from the ghastly white 'half-dead men' to crazed Army Majors, crocodiles and cobras. The meeting of Gandhi with the Doctor is wonderful, and it's left to Donna to draw parallels - and the Doctor to highlight the one key difference between them. A fun ride, with a pointed note of sadness at the end.
