Publisher Description
In 2070, the Earth's weather is controlled from a base on the moon. But when the Doctor and his friends arrive, all is not well. They discover unexplained drops of air pressure, minor problems with the weather control systems, and an outbreak of a mysterious plague.
With Jamie injured, and members of the crew going missing, the Doctor realises that the moonbase is under attack. Some malevolent force is infecting the crew and sabotaging the systems as a prelude to an invasion of Earth. And the Doctor thinks he knows who is behind it: the Cybermen.
This novel is based on 'The Moonbase', a Doctor Who sci-fi story that was originally broadcast from 11 February-4 March 1967.
Featuring the Second Doctor as played by Patrick Troughton, and his companions Polly, Ben and Jamie
Customer Reviews
Doctor Who and the Cybermen
The best of the second doctor’s base under threat stories and a great novelisation.
The Moonbase
I lapped this book up as a youngster and enjoy it just as much all these years later. The cybermen are creepy, sneaking around the dark bits of the moon base, infecting the bases' sugar supply with their virus, and the Doctor, Jamie, Ben and Polly are one of my favourite teams in the entire series.
Hopefully, in the not-too-distant future those nice people at 2entertain will commission someone to animate the two missing episodes of The Moonbase t.v version so that this under-rated story can reach a wider audience.
