Amy (Sun)'s Reviews > Doctor Who: The Monsters Inside

This was a delightful little book. Set as Rose's first trip to an alien planet, the Doctor and Rose are separated for almost all of the story... but that only makes it all the better. Firstly, because they spend the whole thing trying to get back to each other, and their devotion and loyalty and belief in the other is wonderfully done. Also, because Rose really shines in this book, as a very strong-willed, determined woman who basically kicks ass and gets her way back to the Doctor herself.

Absolutely adored this, without a doubt. It was also great to see... (view spoiler)[the Slitheen return, especially since this book is clearly aware (as the current showrunner does not seem to be) that Slitheen is a family name and not a species name, and we get to meet another family, the Blathereen, as well.
