The mind of Sutekh the Destroyer is consumed with jealousy and hatred. Convinced that all living things are his mortal enemy, he is determined to annihilate all forms of life throughout the universe. Imprisoned at the heart of an Egyptian pyramid, the force of his maniacal evil has been paralysed for centuries. But now, after thousands upon thousands of years of long captivity, the moment of deliverance has arrived. Sutekh's vicious megalomania is about to be unleashed upon the world - unless the Doctor succeeds in outwitting a mind so powerful it can force him to his knees and torture him at a glance... Tom Baker, who played the Fourth Doctor in the BBC TV series, reads Terrance Dicks' complete and unabridged novelisation, first published by Target Books in 1976. 'BBC Audiobooks has chosen well with its books and has taken the right approach with its readers... they benefit from new music and sound effects' - Doctor Who Magazine.©1976 Terrance Dicks; (P)2008 BBC Audiobooks Ltd Fantasy Science Fiction Fiction Scary Middle East

Proper old fashioned Dr. Who read by the best Dr.
Pyramids of Mars is a great story and Tom Baker brilliantly brings it to audible. His characterisation of the all of the main players helps the story along considerably. This production has a few slight differences to the TV version and is arguably better for them.
definitely a great edition to the library.

A quality story.

Not those kinds of mummy issues … from the title you might guess at the Doctor’s bandage-clad foes in this classic, zany adventure - which imagines that the gods worshipped by ancient Egyptians were in reality powerful aliens. One of those deities was imprisoned by an adversary - and is now threatening to break free, endangering the universe. It’s bonkers - but brilliant. Tom Baker reads it beautifully - and the sound effects are spot-on. This is a wonderful slice of nostalgia. It was screened back in 1975 and the novelisation was published the following year. If you like this or are keen for more, try The Brain of Morbius, another horror-themed Who, also read by Baker.

This audiobook is simply put brilliant. It was so great to hear Tom Baker reading my favourite story of doctor who. It’s not too long and his reading keeps your attention. Recommended for anyone who loves the original series of doctor who or someone who wants to see why the original series were so good.

Fantastic reading of a classic serial
