Reviews for Whos 50: An Unofficial Companion: 50 Doctor Who Stories to Watch Before You Die

Damn you, Burk and Smith. I have just lost four hours to your blasted book. And I only meant to glance at it. It is nightmarishly more-ish. --Neil Gaiman on Who Is the Doctor Well-argued and considered and persuasive enough to keep you reading just that little bit more. -- Doctor Who Magazine on Who Is the Doctor Who's 50 is like being thrown the keys to the TARDIS with a temporal map to visit all those not-to-be-missed adventures in time and space. --Phil Ford, Doctor Who writer and executive producer of The Sarah Jane Adventures and Wizards Vs. Aliens Who's 50 gets a solid and very respectable 4 out of 5 so put it on your list of books to grab as you celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Doctor's travels through time and space. -- C.W. Beuchler Online The most intelligent and lively book I have read about Doctor Who . It deserves to be a big hit not only with the fans but also to viewers new to the show. --Philip Hinchcliffe, Producer of Doctor Who 1974-1977 This book's full of intriguing, well-argued opinions and it's a delight to wallow in them. This is strongest when the authors are going against received wisdom or disagreeing with each other. -- Finn Clark's Reviews
