A left-footed attempt November 13, 2005 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Oh dear, this is a strange mishmash – part historical appreciation of the demise of the Aztec civilisation, part half-hearted attempt to show the Doctor’s vulnerability. There are some intriguingly whimsical moments but they are too few and far-between to sustain interest. Kate Orman obviously knows her 'Who' but the novel is too fractured and downright bizarre: The weird blueness that pervades throughout is never really explained, the Aztec history is accurately realised but too complicated to follow coherently and the Doctor's companions are again underused. This is not the worst of the New Adventures but has certainly been the hardest to read so far.
