On the Back Cover:
 Hamlet,
thou hast thy father much offended.
Ace stared
at The Doctor. He nodded. 'Yes, Ace. We're in Elsinore. And I don't like it
either.'
Five years ago, an archeological expedition came to Menaxus
to explore the ruins of an ancient theatre. All but one of the visitors died
horribly, and the planet was abandoned, bathed in lethal radiation.
Now the only survivor has returned, determined to uncover the
theatre's secrets whatever the cost. Among her archaeological team is a certain
Professor Bernice Summerfield.
Soon the
deaths begin again, while the front line of an interstellar war moves ever
closer. Desperate for help, Bernice tries to summon her companions. But when
the TARDIS lands on the planet, The Doctor finds himself participating in a
frighteningly real performance of Shakespeare's greatest tragedy. And he begins
to realise that the truth about Menaxus may be far stranger than anyone
imagines. |
