Spans all the Doctor Who series, which is the main reason I love it. GREAT source of canon! I've learned a lot about the Time Lords, considering how long Doctor Who history has gone on -- very hard for a relatively new Whovian like me to glean all the info over a relatively short time. Great artwork too (in the print edition, which I also have). Review: Dr. Who must have - Really great book for any Doctor Who fan. It's loaded with really great pictures and goes through the history of the time lords so I thought it was really cool. The cover of the book is really nice and the gold lettering and art looks great. More than worth the money.

Dr. Who must have
Really great book for any Doctor Who fan. It's loaded with really great pictures and goes through the history of the time lords so I thought it was really cool. The cover of the book is really nice and the gold lettering and art looks great. More than worth the money.

A Quick Read of their history...sort of.
The Doctor fascinates me to no end. He drops hints of his past across multiple incarnations and where he came from but that is what they are, hints. Here it is all pulled together and summarized, think of it like a Cliff Notes version. And it's so much bigger on the inside and the story is still going.......

Introduction to the beginning of Dr. Who
It was pretty good and gave me some history of what went on before..Since I am a pretty new fan (started watching the 13th incarnation -a woman) who I adore by the way. I didn't know anything except he/she was the last of the time lords/ and something happened to all the others..I liked the pics But I'm not sure the pics corresponded to the descriptions..Some pics were of women but described as a male and vice versa which was very confusing to a newbie like me..This is one of the reasons I gave it a 4..plus sentences were repeated over and over again which was quite annoying. As a fast introduction into the Dr. Who mythos it does sort of fit the bill. As the above states it could have been a bit clearer on the characters/labeling would have been nice on some pics..I am glad I read it though and probably will read it again cause it was alot of info to wrap my head around lol.So unless U watched this series from the beginning or have lots of moola to watch all the episodes this is a beginner point.

A who's who of Who
I got this for my son for his birthday and he absolutely loves it. He is a big classic Dr. Who fan and this book had a lot of information.

Nice book for a fan
This is a really nice hardback book. It’s a nice size and the pages are thicker and glossy. The covers and nice and solid and it’s a well put together book. It also arrived in perfect condition.

Take Time to read about Time
Well written, I have most of the episodes from the first and this provided much continuity that is often just assumed between episodes. It covered the highlights and main trends but didn't go into some details - no doubt due to space. - or time - or perhaps lack of a TARDIS
