Story
In his first-ever Doctor Who novel, Tom Baker’s incredible imagination is given free rein. A story so epic it was originally intended for the big screen, Scratchman is a gripping, white-knuckle thriller almost 40 years in the making. The Doctor, Harry and Sarah Jane Smith arrive at a remote Scottish island when their holiday is cut short by the appearance of strange creatures - hideous scarecrows who are preying on the local population. The islanders are living in fear, and the Doctor vows to save them all.

Solid continuation of TOS episode
I’ve recently been catching up on Star Trek books that I missed as a teenager. This is — in part — a continuation of the penultimate episode of The Original Series, “All Our Yesterdays.” With James Doohan narrating and Leonard Nimoy voicing several internal monologues by Spock, Yesterday’s Son (1983) feels like a hidden episode of TOS. For Trekkies, a fun audiobook.

about what I expected
I enjoyed hearing James Doohan and Leonard Nimoy perform this quasi audio drama. The story was only so-so. I guess my biggest problem is that so many of these canon adjacent stories are just kind of weak. Since nothing permanent is ever allowed to happen to any of the main characters, nothing of consequence ever actually happens. It leaves the story toothless. Additionally, the imitation Star Trek synthesizer score is just plain painful to listen to. It's affordable comfort food, but don't have high expectations for character development or plot.

Great Spock story.
What did you love best about Star Trek?
I love star trek and Spock is my favorite character. This book is part one based on an episode from the original series. Spock discovered that what happened in the past had consequences and he got something he didn't know he wanted.
What other book might you compare Star Trek to and why?
There is no other book I can compare Star Trek to unless it is one of the spin-offs of the original series.
What about Leonard Nimoy and James Doohan ’s performance did you like?
The way they passhanley read the story
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
When Spock told Zar that he was proud of him.
Any additional comments?
This book and the next one is a must for the Star Trek fan.
