Doctor Who: Harvest Of Time

After billions of years of imprisonment, the vicious Sild have broken out of confinement. From a ruined world at the end of time, they make preparations to conquer the past, with the ultimate goal of rewriting history. But to achieve their aims they will need to enslave an intellect greater than their own... On Earth, UNIT is called in to investigate a mysterious incident on a North Sea drilling platform. The Doctor believes something is afoot, and no sooner has the investigation begun than something even stranger takes hold: the Brigadier is starting to forget about UNIT's highest-profile prisoner. And he is not alone in his amnesia. As the Sild invasion begins, the Doctor faces a terrible dilemma. To save the universe, he must save his arch-nemesis... the Master. A complete and unabridged reading by Geoffrey Beevers, with original sound design.

10 CDs. 11 hrs 48 mins.

Reviews

Beevers as both narrator and evil genius... is thoroughly believable... He switches easily between the characters and presents an immersive experience of ‘Harvest Of Time’

The audio release uses the vocal talents of Geoffrey Beevers, who played a later incarnation of the Master, and he performs the job with aplomb… Highly recommended.

Echoes of Jane Austen. . . Hall unpeels the relationships of an averagely dysfunctional family layer by layer, with superb truthfulness and accuracy

—— Kate Saunders , The Times

A perfect book club choice, this is a novel to read from cover to cover in one day

—— Psychologies Magazine

Ambitious . . . intricate . . . a splendid, carefully-plotted, open-hearted novel

—— James Zug author of Squash , Boston Globe

A twisted family saga lodged in John Cheever and Wes Anderson

—— Vogue, USA

A chronicler of American suburban sadness to rival the likes of John Cheever and Richard Yates

—— The Express

Accomplished, kind-hearted and subtle . . . a tribute to Jane Austen's persuasion

—— Vanora Bennett , The Times

Makes for interesting reading.

—— Kathy Stevenson , Daily Mail

An ambitious, almost impossibly wide-ranging book... Where the novel is most original is in tone. If a good writer is someone who matches style to subject, this novel is very prosing indeed.

—— Andrew Marszal , Daily Telegraph

Hunters in the Snow is a very assured assemblage held together by the questions of narrative, integration, and preservation which run through it.

—— Words of Mercury

Ambitious debut novel.

—— Adam Thorpe , Guardian

Like history itself, the meaning may remain doubtful; but we relish captivating stories.

Fine and wonderfully original debut novel.

—— David Evans , Financial Times

A hauntingly brilliant first novel about how we respond to the past... I envied, as well as admired, this author's literary command. A star is born.

—— A.N. Wilson , Church Times

One of the year’s most impressive first novels…Hunters in the Snow’s ambition, scope and assurance…are thrilling and admirable, and make for a very fine book indeed.
