Reviews"Now, it's no secret that we're good buddies with Blogtor Who owner, Cameron K. McEwan, and when we heard he was coming out with a Doctor Who book that would act as "a whovian guide to friends, foes, villains, monsters and companions", we were very excited indeed - especially considering his vast knowledge and love for the show. Once you finally get over adoring the beautifully embossed 'Doctor Who' lettering on the cover, which also features The 10th, 11th and 12th Doctors (yes that is the correct numbering), you are presented with the simple, yet effective contents page that typifies this straight-up, no-nonsense guide which does exactly what it says on the proverbial tin. The various sections within the book (The Doctors, The Companions, Friends Allies, Robots, Time Lords Ladies, Villains and Aliens Monsters) are laid out beautifully and clearly in alphabetical order to easily find who you want. As you thumb through pages and pages of character breakdowns, coupled with pictures and illustrations gloriously brought to life by Andrew Skilleter, you realise just how concise the book is. With over 50 years to draw from you will find information about characters you have long since forgotten (Rita from The God Complex), or even facts about the ones you thought you knew everything about. The Who's Who Of Doctor Who is essential reading for anyone wanting to know anything from 'Ace' to 'The Zygons', and with over 300 entries to explore, you'll be reaching for it time and time again." - Doctor Who Online, 'the ultimate book for Doctor Who fans' 'McEwan's clear, well-versed writing is excellent... The Who's Who of Doctor Who is a comprehensive, well-written and handsome guide to the world of Doctor Who ... a book that's perfect for pretty much any fan.'

  • Good starter book for beginning fan

    Not recommended for some one looking for an encyclopedic source( which i was) but if you are just getting into Doctor Who it would be a good place to begin learning about the long history of the show.

  • Who's Who

    This is a very good read, and contains some very well-rendered artwork. The author is a REAL "Whovian", so you know the content has been checked for accuracy. I only wish it had more on the latest Doctor 9Peter Capaldi). Perhaps a newer addition is in the offing. We can hope.
