Bulis has made some effort to get to grips with the Victorian boys' adventure genre, and here we have a British expedition landing on the Moon in 1878, seen off by the Queen herself. There's also a slightly contrived but not too horrible subplot of the Tardis crew crossing their own timeline, and Bulis even finds two useful things for Kamelion to do (which is two more than ever happened on television). I didn't quite swallow the ultimate reveal about the aliens or the Doctor's trigger-happy way of dealing with the problem, but it is at least a decent effort. ( )

Writing good, action plot with unique steampunk feel, then a tone change to Aliens. Not enough of the Dr. No description of Dr. or Tourlough. Kind of limited scope. ( )
