What They're Saying
Critics Review
” Who is the Doctor offers additional depth to the series, partly by picking out the important (and the trivial) things that are done in each episode.” Steven Silver, Steven Silver’s Reviews
“This is the kind of book to keep with you when watching (or re-watching) the series and dipping into when you have an idle moment.” — Steven Silver’s Reviews
“Who is the Doctor is a strong addition to the many volumes written about the new show, and one that, I suspect, will be referred to long after the more cerebral analyses have faded into oblivion.” — Sci-Fi Bulletin
“A thought-provoking and educational supplement to the first six series of the re-launched Doctor Who.” — Boomerocity.com
“This is one of the finer episode guides I have run across for any show, and highly recommend it for any fan of the ninth, tenth, or eleventh Doctor.” — BookGuys.ca
“Graeme and Robert have a talent that might be considered rare in TV criticism — even when you don’t agree with their assessments, they’re never insulting about it, and they always explain themselves.” — Craig Byrne
