SHAKEDOWN - The Novel |
|
'The
Sontarans can never defeat us. It is we who will win.'
For
thousands of years the Sontaran clone-warriors and the Rutan gestalt have
fought each other across the galaxy. Now the Sontarans have a plan to strike at
the heart of the Rutan Empire, and utterly defeat the Rutan race.
The Doctor
has his suspicions, but only one Rutan spy knows the Sontarans' secret. He is
being pursued from planet to planet by Cwej and Forrester and by a Sontaran hit
squad. After a confrontation aboard the racing space-yacht Tiger Moth, the
chase culminates on the library planet Sentarion - where Professor Bernice
Summerfield's researches into the history of the Sontaran/Rutan war turn into
explosive reality. |
