The Color Of Magic by Terry Pratchett

My review

rating: 3 of 5 stars
Ah, so whoever it was that advised me to start with the Watch books, instead of going by publication chronology, was completely right. Probably the most entertaining thing about these books is watching Pratchett working really hard to tune his funny. And there are flickers of that perfect pitch he has later, but mostly it's just sort of random-incidents-strung-together, and there's only occasional bits of there there.

Doctor Who: The Last Dodo

Doctor Who: The Last Dodo by Jacqueline Rayner

My review

rating: 3 of 5 stars
In which the Doctor uses a ladder to climb over a dinosaur and gets to drive a firetruck. And there's some plotty mcplotness, but that wasn't all that exciting and I'm not a particular Rayner fan, so the charm here is the little bits of awesome Doctor and the excellent narration by Freema Agyeman on the audio.
