The Slow Empire (Dave
Stone) |
|
On the Back Cover:
Enter,
with The Doctor, Anji and Fitz, an Empire where the laws of physics are quite
preposterous - nothing can travel faster than the speed of light and time
travel is impossible.
A thousand worlds, each believing they are the
Centre, each under a malign control of which they themselves are completely
unaware.
As the beings able to travel between the worlds
instantaneously, The Doctor and his friends must piece together the Imperial
puzzle and decide what should be done. The soldiers of the Ambassadorial Corps
are always, somehow, hard on their heels. Their own minds are busily
fragmenting under metatemporal stresses. And their only allies are a man who
might not be quite what he seems (and says so at great length) and a creature
we shall merely call... the Collector. |
