About this listen

 The Cybermen - silver, indestructible monsters whose only goal is power - seem to have disappeared from their planet, Telos. When a party of archaeologists, joined by the Doctor, Jamie and Victoria, land on the Cybermen's barren, deserted planet, they uncover what appears to be their tomb. But once inside it becomes clear that the Cybermen are not dead, and some in the group of archaeologists desperately want to re-activate these monsters! How can the Doctor defeat these ruthless, power-seeking humans and the Cybermen? Michael Kilgarriff, who played the Cyber Controller in the original BBC TV serial, reads Gerry Davis' complete and unabridged novelisation, first published by Target Books in 1978. Cyberman voices are provided by Nicholas Briggs. Adventure Science Fiction Time Travel Fiction Solar System

Critic reviews

Sound plays a great part in this Target Books adaptation of the classic Second Doctor story, with designer Simon Power deliberately trying to evoke a chilling sense of menace which perhaps wasn’t conveyed on screen, building up the claustrophobia and sense of tension... a near-perfect masterpiece of storytelling which in many ways is actually superior to its television counterpart. (Matt Adams)

I wasn't sure the narrator was someone I enjoyed listening to. I think the story was amazing and overall I liked it.

i enjoy it but....

A fascinating, Hammeresque take on the famous Doctor Who monster, well narrated by Michael Kilgarriff. His narration will definitely not be for everyone, especially his slightly shouty interpretation of Klieg, but I definitely enjoy it. I’m not the biggest fan of the story, but the novelisation adds some nice details and fixes some mistakes from the TV serial. A must-have for any fan of the Cybermen.

An iconic Cybermen story
