I'm an archaeologist, but probably not the one you were expecting. | {{Book Review}} Big Bang Generation



Christmas 2015, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.

Imagine everyone's surprise when a time portal opens up in Sydney Cove. Imagine their shock as a massive pyramid now sits beside the Harbour Bridge, inconveniently blocking Port Jackson and glowing with energy. Imagine their fear as Cyrrus "the mobster" Globb, Professor Horace Jaanson and an alien assassin called Kik arrive to claim the glowing pyramid. Finally imagine everyone's dismay when they are followed by a bunch of con artists out to spring their greatest grift yet.

This gang consists of Legs (the sexy comedian), Dog Boy (providing protection and firepower), Shortie (handling logistics), Da Trowel (in charge of excavation and history) and their leader, Doc (busy making sure the universe isn't destroyed in an explosion that makes the Big Bang look like a damp squib).

And when someone accidentally reawakens The Ancients of the Universe - which, Doc reckons, wasn't the wisest or best-judged of actions – things get a whole lot more complicated…


My Thoughts:
The Big Bang Generation is yet another awesome novel in the Doctor Who series. I really enjoyed this book, and I know my oldest child will as well! Be warned there is mild language in this book

{{Book Review}} Doctor Who: Deep Time | "I do hope you’re all ready to be terrified!"




The Phaeron disappeared from the universe over a million years ago. They travelled among the stars using roads made from time and space, but left only relics behind. But what actually happened to the Phaeron? Some believe they were they eradicated by a superior force… Others claim they destroyed themselves.
 
Or were they in fact the victims of an even more hideous fate?



In the far future, humans discover the location of the last Phaeron road – and the Doctor and Clara join the mission to see where the road leads. 
 
Each member of the research team knows exactly what they’re looking for – but only the Doctor knows exactly what they’ll find.

Because only the Doctor knows the true secret of the Phaeron: a monstrous secret so terrible and powerful that it must be buried in the deepest grave imaginable…

*My Review*
I am a HUGE Doctor Who fan, and absolutely loved this book. "Doctor Who:Deep Time" is a nicely written book. My 12 year old loves to read, so I will be passing this book on to them to read as well. I can't wait to read the other books. The cover is pretty cool as well!
