The Janus Conjunction (Trevor
Baxendale) |
|
On the Back Cover:
The
planets, Janus Prime and Menda are diametrically opposed in orbit round a vast
Red Giant star. But while Menda is rich and fertile in the light of the sun,
Janus Prime endures everlasting night, its moon causing a permanent solar
eclipse.
When The Doctor and Sam arrive on Janus Prime, they find
themselves in the middle of a war between rival humans colonising the area. The
planet is littered with ancient ruins, and the Mendans are using a mysterious
hyperspatial link left behind by the planet's former inhabitants. But what is
its true purpose?
The Doctor and Sam must piece together a
centuries-old puzzle. How can Janus Prime's moon weigh billions of tons more
than it should? Why is the planet riddled with deadly radiation? As the
violence escalates around them, will the time-travellers survive to discover
the answers? |
