Book Review: Doctor Who: The Forgotten Army by Brian Minchin

 Let me tell you a story. Long ago, in the frozen Arctic wastes, an alien army landed. Only now, 10,000 years later, it isn't a story. And the army is ready to attack.

 New York – one of the greatest cities on 21st century Earth...

But what's going on in the Museum? And is that really a Woolly Mammoth rampaging down Broadway? An ordinary day becomes a time of terror, as Ice Age creatures come back to life, and the Doctor and Amy meet a new and deadly enemy. The vicious Army of the Vykoid are armed to the teeth and determined to enslave the human race. Even though they're only seven centimetres high. With the Doctor kidnapped, and the Vykoid army swarming across Manhattan and sealing it from the world with a powerful alien force field, Amy has just 24 hours to find the Doctor and save the city. If she doesn't, the people of Manhattan will be taken to work in the doomed asteroid mines of the Vykoid home planet. But as time starts to run out, who can she trust? And how far will she have to go to free New York from the Forgotten Army?

Overview: 

The Doctor and Amy arrive in New York City, to get a bite to eat at the best restaurant in History, they find themselves fighting the Vykoids, a miniature race, capable of taking control of New York City-and they're only seven centimetres. 

      

The Review:

This book was funny, and it was also slightly torture if you've read it after you've seen The Angels take Manhattan. Especially when Amy comments that she wished she made Rory take her to New York. Other than that, this was an excellent book to read. It was funny and had some dramatic moments. The two words at the end of the book really warmed my heart, and I truly enjoyed reading this book.

Four Stars
