Venusian Lullaby
(Paul
Leonard) |
|
On the Back Cover:
 'You
want me to help you eat your children?' Ian said. Jellenhut's eye-stalks
twitched. 'How else would we remember them?'
Venus is
dying. When The Doctor, Barbara and Ian arrive they find an ancient and utterly
alien civilization on the verge of oblivion. War is brewing between those who
are determined to accept death, and those desperate for salvation whatever the
cost.
Then a spacefaring race arrives, offering to rescue the
Venusians by moving them all to Earth - three billion years before mankind is
due to evolve. Are the newcomers' motives as pure as they appear? And will The Doctor allow them to save his oldest friends by sacrificing the future of
humanity? |
