Doctor Who: The Dalek Generation

By: Nicholas Briggs

Narrated by: Nicholas Briggs

'The Sunlight Worlds Offer You A Life of Comfort and Plenty. Apply now at the Dalek Foundation.' Sunlight 349 is one of countless Dalek Foundation worlds, planets created to house billions suffering from economic hardship. The Doctor arrives at Sunlight 349, suspicious of any world where the Daleks are apparently a force for good - and determined to find out the truth. The Doctor knows they have a far more sinister plan - but how can he convince those who have lived under the benevolence of the Daleks for a generation? But convince them he must, and soon. For on another Foundation planet, archaeologists have unearthed the most dangerous technology in the universe... A thrilling, all-new adventure featuring the Doctor as played by Matt Smith in the spectacular hit series from BBC Television.

Great Author & Narrator!

I've heard my fare share of DrWho audiobooks and I have to say that in my opinion, Nicholas Briggs is the best narrator! Being both author and narrator on this book only adds to that! :)

fun story

A fun story, nice twists, interesting story without a companion, not sure where the Ponds are at this timeline

SO WELL PLANNED OUT!

Get. this. book. NOW!!!!!!!
Seriously it's quite possibly the best book ever!
i don't want to spoil it but its so good!
GET IT NOW THE DALEKS WILL EXTERMINATE YOU!

Not my favorite Smith era book but a neat one.

Have you listened to any of Nicholas Briggs’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I think the one thing a narrator of a Doctor Who novel has to do is do a decent impression of the doctor in the story. It's not the best Matt Smith I've heard but it works. And yes the Dalek voices are done with the FX.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

There's a bit of social commentary hidden in the story. The doctor tries to convince a world of people that the Daleks are evil but they are too easily distracted by reality TV. He tries to hijack the TV broadcast but people are mostly just annoyed.

Any additional comments?

I almost stopped when I realized the doctor's companions in this story were 3 young children but the premise is interesting enough to keep going. Not the doctor vs dalek showdown one would hope for and no huge triumph at the end but a neat twit.

Awesome story! Awesome Narration!

Excellent book! The Author put a lot of creativity, twists and turns like the TARDIS in the Vortex. The Best Parts & Conclusion were absolutely...well you're going to just have to have a listen, won't you?! Except...trust me...be sure to listen from the first words all the way through until final words to get the complete story! But No Spoilers Here. Nicholas Briggs, Thank you very, very much!
