Doctor Who: The Satan Pit: 10th Doctor Novelisations

A multi-voice reading of this thrilling novelisation of the 2006 BBC TV adventure.

The Doctor and Rose travel to Krop Tor – an impossible planet orbiting a black hole, defying the laws of physics.

With the TARDIS lost to them, trapped with a crew of human explorers and their alien servants - the Ood - they find ancient ruins…and something far older and darker stirring beneath the surface.

Whispers speak of a malevolent force imprisoned since before time – something that even the Doctor fears. As seismic horrors rise and minds begin to fracture, one terrifying question remains: what if the Devil is real?

Claire Rushbrook (Ida in the TV episodes), Ronny Jhutti (Danny), Silas Carson (the Ood) and Maureen O’Brien read screenwriter Matt Jones’s inspired retelling of his own two-part story from David Tennant’s first season as the Tenth Doctor.
