Loading... The Jade Pyramidby Martin Day
![]() None No current Talk conversations about this book. I really liked this story. I just finished catching up on all the newer Doctor Whos and I really wanted to hear more stories from them. This one is quick, but well worth it. I love Amy Pond and she is a real fighter in this story. ( )http://nwhyte.livejournal.com/1648277.html An Eleventh Doctor plus Amy audiobook, read by Matt Smith himself, set in Japan under the Shogunate. A fairly standard story - the Jade Pyramid off the title is an alien artefact with mystic powers in a village temple, and thus an object of desire for the local rulers. But it is written well, and Matt Smith is good at the voices (himself as the Doctor, Amy's Scottish lilt, and the senior villager) and at telling the story; plus nice music and sound effects in post-production. Worth adding to your collection. no reviews | add a review
Intercepting a distress call, the TARDIS is drawn to a Shinto shrine in medieval Japan, where the Doctor and Amy are met by village elder Shij�� Sada. He explains that the ogre-like mannequins surrounding the holy site are harmless guardians, called Otoroshi. At the heart of the temple is an ancient jade pyramid, so sacred that only the monks may look at it... No library descriptions found. |
