Zeta Major (Simon
Messingham) |

On the Back Cover:
'You've
decided to concentrate on deriving energy from the kinetic force of planetary
movement...'
A glib remark from The Doctor to a desperate
scientist has had far-reaching effects on the empire of Morestra. Eminent
Morestran scientist Sorenson, attempting to find a new power source for his
planet, risked a universal catastrophe by attempting to steal anti-matter
crystals from the distant planet of Zeta Minor. The Doctor averted disaster,
but has in effect sent all Morestra up a technological cul-de-sac.
Now in his
fifth regeneration, The Doctor becomes involved once again in Morestra's
future. The empire has become a theocracy, and the all-powerful Church, finally
discovering that Sorenson's world-spanning energy tower will never work, is
attempting to save face by covertly returning to Zeta Minor to steal the
powerful minerals they need. This time, they believe they are prepared for all
eventualities...
With his companions embroiled in the ever-shifting loyalties
and intrigues of the Morestran court, only The Doctor accepts that the forces
of the anti-matter universe can never interact with our own. Can he stop
something he started two thousand years ago? |
