About this listen

 Why do so many spaceships crashland on Karn, a bleak, lonely and seemingly deserted planet? Are they doomed by the mysterious powers of the strange, black-robed Sisterhood, jealously guarding their secret of eternal life? Or does the mad Dr Solon, for some evil purpose of his own, need the bodies of his victims? And more especially, the body of Doctor Who... 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 1977. ‘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.©1977 Terrance Dicks; (P)2008 BBC Audiobooks Ltd Fantasy Science Fiction Fiction

The classic TV version of the Morbius story is an homage to Hammer horror - the Doctor does Frankenstein, effectively. It’s brilliant thanks to Tom Baker, who narrates the audiobook and voices Morbius, to chilling effect. It’s a macabre tale, cleverly constructed, short but compelling. And it’s the subject of a forthcoming Backlisted podcast (about old books).

Vintage Doctor Who: a spine-chilling listen!

The only thing that grates a little is the pronunciation of "Solon" as "Sewlon". Other to that, excellent!

Excellent version of classic adventure.

Although I know this story well - I love to listen to Tom Baker - I find him so relaxing that I just drift off.....
Seriously good listen and jolly well written.

Any 4th Doctor story Tom Baker narrates is a cracker. Good length and very enjoyable.
