2.0 out of 5 stars Too confusing
I read this while in the library in one straight sitting. It was fine enough on how it was written in style, but the overall storyline was completely messed up, until i just wanted to scream and throw the book across the room. I managed to read it through to the end and of course the ending was even more confusing with an invisible scene being the way they managed to make...

5.0 out of 5 stars Can't you see I'm so trapped and I don't know what to do...,
After a host of original Doctor Who novels for both The Virgin New Adventures series and the BBC books series that followed it, this is Simon Messingham's first Tenth Doctor novel - and it doesn't disappoint.
As with the previous book in the series, Martha in the Mirror; some of the elements from stories from both the `classic' (i.e. 1963 - 1989) as well as the current series' are used; something that will appeal to the older fans amongst us as well as fascinating and intriguing younger readers. Robert Shearman's Ninth Doctor adventure `Dalek', immediately springs to mind when reading the account of the space museum housing different alien species, whilst the museum's curator and the despotic ruler of Planet 1 - Sebastiene - has antecedents in both The Celestial Toymaker and The Master of the land of Fiction from 1968 story `The Mind Robber'.
Messingham develops an idea first purported in the 2006 TV story `Love and Monsters'; that The Doctor's travels are ardently followed by hordes of fans. Although this idea may seem spurious to the older generation of `Whovians' it provides the necessary backdrop to a story of dim-witted dopplegangers, demented droids and deluded dictators; as The Doctor becomes the prey in a deadly game of cat and mouse...
The Doctor's current travelling companion, Donna Noble, is sidelined early on in the story, and this allows The Doctor to fight this particular menace unshackled, making for a fast-paced and fascinating battle of wits.
The audiobook version, read by Russell Tovey (Midshipman Frame in 2007 Christmas Special 'Voyage of the Damned'), is unfortunately abridged, and consequently squeezes too much plot into too short a space. I would definitely recommend going for the hardback version; unless you have a worryingly short attention span.
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent audiobook. Russell Tovey really makes the characters come alive.,
Music Lover. (England.) - See all my reviews
I've really said it all in the title of my review.
This is a truly excellent audiobook, one of the best I've ever heard.
Russell Tovey makes the story come alive, so that it's more like listening to a real audio adventure rather than just a reading of a book. He does such a brilliant job of creating the different characters, especially the character of Sebastian. His talent for creating the different voices and tones of speech is unsurpassed in my view.
He really does bring the characters in the story alive.
Usually, audiobooks need the inclusion of music and sound effects to really work, but you don't get any in the audbiobooks featuring the current Doctor Who stories, as you do get in the classic Doctor Who audiobooks. But you do get the Doctor Who theme tune, which you don't get in the 'classic' Who audiobooks for some reason, (maybe the BBC not wanting to use any Dr Who theme in their audiobooks except the current Doctor's theme?) Anyhow, a lot of the time, the current audiobook versions are not usually as good as some of the 'classic' Doctor Who audiobooks, mainly for the lack of music and sound effects, but even without any of that, this story just LIVES, thanks to the excellent reading skills of the narrator. Brilliant!

5.0 out of 5 stars Hunt the Doctor,
Paul Tapner (poole dorset england) - See all my reviews
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
An original Doctor Who novel, telling an all new story not seen on tv. It features the tenth Doctor and his companion Donna Noble.
Like all in this range it runs for just under two hundred and fifty pages, can be read by readers of all ages - although this one might be a bit much for the very young thanks to a rather labyrinthine plot - and the two leads are recreated perfectly on the printed page, with dialogue you can imagine them saying on tv.
The story sees the Doctor fall foul of Sebastiane. The mysterious man who rules a world called planet one, which has some very sophisticated computers and robots. He acts like a victorian gentleman. And he likes to hunt. And what better to hunt than rare species? Like the last of the time lords.
Sebastiane is also slightly crazy and this makes him dangerously unpredictable.
So when the Doctor and Donna fall into his hands, they have a fight on their hands in order to survive.
Not least because the Doctor has a plan of his own...
The initial developments of the plans in this story result in a plot that whilst fast moving might have you saying 'what's going on here?' for a while. But stick with it because things to do quickly become clear, and when they do it's all very clever. And it all adds a gripping extra level of danger to the story. Because Sebastiane really is quite a superb villain, so very human and so dangerously unpredictable. A slight flaw is that if he wasn't, the Doctor might not get away with some of the things that he does, but that goes with the madness.
The Doctor and Donna are separated for a lot of the story but that does give her an intriguing plot strand of her own, and adds some interesting extra tension and questions of trust also.
And the pace of the book never lets up for a moment, the story constantly moving on and changing and throwing in some excellent twists at just the right points.
There are some digs at Doctor who fandom but they never gets nasty or snide, so they're not a problem.
A very involving and entertaining read and one of the best in this range.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Doctor trap made my head spin,
Nanny Ogg (Hamburg) - See all my reviews
"The Doctor Trap" is one of the first Doctor Who novels to feature Donna as the Doctor's companion. Though, through the first half of the book she isn't very present, as the Doctor and her get seperated on the first pages.
Sebastiene, the ruler of his own planet, has set out to hunt the doctor down and kill him. Therefor he brought a couple of hunters to Planet 1, all infamous for wiping out rare species. He even created a Doctor-double, made from the Doctor's "biggest fan", Baris. The Doctor manages to swap places with Baris, though and now has not only to rescue Donna, but also get back his TARDIS and escape from the planet.
When I read the book description, I was afraid this could be a second "Last Dodo", another Doctor Who novel where he is hunted for being the last of his kind. But "The Doctor Trap" certainly does not imitate that one. It is faster and more exciting. Again the Doctor and his companion are very well written (including some small banters the way I liked them on the TV series). Plus, I really had to use my brains at one point - the "Doctor Trap" and it's explanation (or the explanation Sebastien though it had), made my head spin. So confusing.
A really good read I'd certainly recommend to Doctor/Donna friends.
4.0 out of 5 stars Different and original,
Mr. M. Jones "Jonesmz" (Chester, England) - See all my reviews
Really different from the rest of the series - being hunted on a world controlled by one man and a robot workforce, with someone who believes he is the doctor. The twists of plot are great.

4.0 out of 5 stars Audiobook is NOT background listening material. The hardback is much better.,
V. J. Edwards "victoria_edw" - See all my reviews
The audiobook was an enjoyable story, but sufficiently puzzling at points that it required my full attention. Having subsequently read the hardback edition I could see why - as with Beautiful Chaos, I don't think that the abridgement covered all the background and plot points well enough, and would recommend the hardback if choosing between the two.
That aside, the audiobook is a good enough offering - Russell Tovey reads well and with reasonably good characterisation in his voice. I prefer the books actually read by David T. and Catherine T., but this would definitely sit happily alongside those.

4.0 out of 5 stars Planet 1 is Not What It Seems,
Ruth King "BookishRuth.com" (Spring City, PA USA) - See all my reviews
"Excitement, tension, the thrill of the chase, these were a few of his favourite things."
- The Doctor Trap, p. 187
Sebastiene is physically flawless, incredibly powerful and more than a little bit maniacal. As the ruler of Planet 1, Sebastiene has everything he could ever want, but that will never be enough. He's taken to hunting down alien species, the more dangerous the better. For his ultimate prize, however, Sebastiene must enlist the help of the Endangered Dangerous Species Society, a group of the most ruthless hunters in the galaxy. Sebastiene wants to add the most dangerous being in the universe to his collection: the Doctor, the last of the Time Lords.
Sebastiene uses a genetic copy of the Doctor, a man named Baris, to steal the TARDIS and kidnap Donna. The doppelganger lures the Doctor to Planet 1, but it doesn't take long for the Doctor to turn the tables on his twin. He manages to switch places with Baris, which only complicates matters. Now he has to save Donna, recover the TARDIS and keep the hunters from killing Baris. Can the Doctor escape Sebastiene's trap or will Sebastiene find himself in a trap of the Doctor's design?
The Doctor Trap is an action-packed story filled with twists and turns, alternating between confusing and clever. Sebastiene was an interesting villain but I felt that the story would have been stronger without the final twist; it felt rather anticlimactic compared to earlier revelations.
This is one of the first novels to feature Donna Noble as the Doctor's companion. While they spend most of the story separated (one of my personal pet peeves with the Doctor Who novels), there are some nice moments of Doctor/Donna banter that the show's fans came to expect during Series 4.

Cynthia-Reeves at ART 13 London with Museum Exhibiting Artists
Cynthia-Reeves is pleased to participate in the debut edition of Art13 London, a new fair dedicated to international contemporary art, opening on Thursday, February 28 and running through Sunday, March 3 at the Olympia Grand Hall in West London. Widely viewed as the most eagerly anticipated art fair in London in over a decade, Art13 London will showcase over 120 leading international galleries from over 30 countries. Cynthia-Reeves is featuring work by Shen Chen, John Grade, Jonathan Prince, Dawn Black, and Suite42Projects, a collaboration between gallery artist, Danielle Julian Norton, and Tarrah Krajnak, among other distinguishEd Gallery artists.
Following Shen Chen's recent WILO Foundation exhibition, "Chinese Abstract: Slow Art" - shown in both Germany and China - two of his recent high-color paintings will be featured at Cynthia-Reeves. Chen's meticulous layering of color achieves resonant tonal hues, and manifests a rigorous discipline supported by the control of his breath. To create his subtle ombré surfaces, Chen works with the canvas on the studio floor. He layers the paint in precisely calibrated vertical brushstrokes; the discrete horizontal lines visible on the surface are a record of where each brushstroke - and attendant breath - ends.
Chen's work was included in the 2012 exhibition "Abstract Painting Today," which traveled from the Singer Museum in the Netherlands to the Kunsthalle Recklinghausen in Germany. The artist's next international exhibition will be in Shanghai later this year. Shen Chen has been exhibiting with CYNTHIA-REEVES since 2008.
The gallery is excited to present a commissioned work from the lauded Conceal Project by emerging artist, Dawn Black. The Conceal Project, an ongoing inquiry for the artist, is an assemblage of 7½ x 5½ inch panels, each featuring a singular character beautifully rendered in watercolor, ink and gouache. These figures are iconic images the artists finds in contemporary and historical publications, including fashion and adult magazines, National Geographic, etc., each a source for archetypal images of costume, ritual dress, religious finery. She is drawn to clothing and costume for its transformative nature. They allow us to signify, at once, identity, ritual, power, sexuality in a malleable way: as we change our clothes, we change how we perceive ourselves and how others perceive us. The Columbus Museum, GA, recently acquired 12 panels from their exhibition of the Conceal Project, and the Museo della Carta e della Filigrana acquired Oubliette 2, after her inclusion in their recent group show on watercolor painters, of which the painting will now travel to The Fundacio Pedro Cano in Blanca, Spain, through April 2013. Black has been exhibiting with CYNTHIA-REEVES since 2010.

Demands of Saudi Youth For the Future of the Nation
Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz,
Our precious country is experiencing a relative openness in different fields, and we can feel the tireless efforts of reform in religious, social, and economic areas and organizations, all of which seek to meet the demands of the people. However, we find that the reforms are still far from achieving what we hope for, and what this diverse nation- especially young people- needs and aspires to.
Us young Saudi men and women have our own aspirations for the future of this country in terms of development and prosperity in the fields of scientific and cultural development, as well as in the political, social and economic spheres. We long for a free and dignified life at a time when modern means of communication have enabled us to become informed about the lives of people from all over the world. Indeed, we have been following the milestones that these societies have achieved in terms of development and civilizational accomplishments.
Based on a simple comparison between these countries and ours, we can say that our economic and human resources drastically exceed theirs. Yet, we don't even experience half of what they do in terms of justice, freedom, democracy, respect for human rights, and scientific, practical, and cultural progress. We therefore can no longer ignore all these modern developments, and find that we already engage them practically, intellectually, and existentially. When we look at our reality, we see the clear contradictions between what they have achieved and our reality and what little freedom we enjoy… which begs the question: Why? With this question, our sense of responsibility for the importance of change only increases.
We are young men and women from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. As other young Arabs are bringing about the grand political and cultural change that the Arab world is witnessing today, we find that we share with them their visions and aspirations for a more dignified life. However, we first affirm our patriotism, support of our leaders, and commitment to the tolerant principles of Islamic Shari'a. Second, we declare our aspirations and willingness to work toward achieving our reform goals.
We refuse to continue to be a wasted resource surrounded by neglect, unemployment, financial and administrative corruption, forgery and silence. We also refuse to be forced away from our roles in contributing to the development of society, and to be sidelined into passive receivers of ready-made, magical solutions that we neither participate in or execute.
We therefore announce our following demands:
1- We demand an immediate end to the problem of unemployment by providing well-paid job opportunities to young men and women in all specializations. Jobs must also provide health insurance and housing to all citizens, giving them a dignified life in which their basic needs are met, which opens the door to competition, development, and growth.
2- We demand an end to the pervasive problem of poverty which wide sectors of society are suffering from, in our nation that is considered one of the richest oil-exporting countries in the world. Poverty has affected people's education, health, and quality of life, which in turn disqualify them from good and rewarding employment opportunities.
3- We demand that the government take all necessary financial measures to subsidize and lower the prices of basic necessities, construction materials, rent, and land prices for all citizens. The government must strive to support citizens by providing gas, water, and electricity, and lowering the price of communication and transportation.
4- We demand that the government fight all forms of financial and administrative corruption, and prosecute all those involved in corruption cases, the theft of public money, human rights violations, or abuse of power. We also demand the implementation of the principles of monitoring, transparency, and accountability in dealing with public money, and of fair distribution of wealth among all citizens. We want a monitoring body that oversees and enforces strict rules on the activities of economic and investments organizations so the rights of citizens are guaranteed and protected.
5- We demand the criminalization of all forms of nepotism, bias and regional, tribal, and sectarian discrimination against citizens in the distribution of wealth. Here we demand that regional princes stop all their profit-motivated businesses and their competing with locals for land and wealt. This applies to those in ministerial positions and the managers of government institutions directly responsible for citizens' daily activities.
6- We demand an end to all forms of discrimination against women and giving women all their political, economic, social, and cultural rights. These include their right to represent themselves without their guardian; choose their educational specialization; work in all administrative, health, educational, and commercial institutions, whether public or private; and partake in public life without any restrictions.
7- We demand the application of the notion of citizenship by putting an end to all forms of racial and sectarian discrimination in the Kingdom; not treating those who belong to the latter categories as second class citizens; providing them with equal employment opportunities; and allowing them to practice their religious rituals.
8- We demand a restructuring of the educational development plan for all grades, in form and content, by improving educational facilities such as transportation, schools, teaching tools; training teachers and preparing them for teaching and educating in all its proper understandings and methodologies; formulating modern educational curricula in all fields of knowledge in a way that prepares students for the labor market; formulating theoretical approaches in a way that affirms values of tolerance and brotherhood; recognizing the right to diversity within society; and dealing with "the other" in an open, discursive and civilized manner.
9- We demand the improvement of the quality of education in all the Kingdom's universities; Opening more free public universities; increasing the student quota whereby each student can receive a university education without discrimination; ending arbitrary acceptance requirements and ensuring they correspond to requirements of the labor market; implementing principles of academic freedom and impunity when conducting research; allowing the freedom of academic critique that is not censored; and establishing the role of universities in social and volunteer work.
10- We demand the criminalization of all forms of domestic, social, religious, and sectarian violence, and instead, allowing for an atmosphere of tolerance and fighting intellectual stagnancy, and encouraging ijtihad, since Islamic Shari'a is broad enough to deal with the reality in ways that accomplish its noble goals.
11- We demand an end to the Committee for the Propagation of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice's religious guardianship over society and replacing it with academic programs that breed principles of humanness through schools and universities. This will develop a sense of responsibility and self-censorship among citizens, which the Committee has failed to do for decades and on the contrary, has created an atmosphere of violence, anger, fear, doubting society's morality, religion, and credibility in dealing with oneself and with others.
12- We demand the inclusion of cultural activities in citizens' lives, which requires an atmosphere of freedom and democracy in running public libraries, literary and sports clubs, and cultural and art societies; and eliminating all restrictions on these societies and relying on their role in reviving Saudi society.
13- We demand activating the role of the arts in developing cultural life for society (acting, directing, music, cinema, etc…) by allowing the establishment of institutes that teach these majors and opening up cinemas and theaters that the public can access freely.
14- We demand the inclusion of young men and women in all institutions involved in economic and cultural development, for purposes of dialogue, the exchange of ideas and planning for the future, so that their voices and aspirations may be heard and incorporated.
We believe that our demands can only be achieved in a democratic atmosphere that informs and organizes the work of the state apparatus and its ministries and institutions, which allows for competition and enables people to be critical and to freely and publicly choose whoever achieves their interests. We believe that this will only be achieved by an immediate implementation of the following procedures:
a) Developing the "system of governance" into a constitutional monarchy that strengthens the rule of law and institutions and guarantees: the separation of the legislative, executive, and judiciary powers; the freedom of opinion and expression; the right to protest and demonstrate; the freedom to form civil society institutions, which includes the freedom to form parties and societies; the right of the people to partake in political decision-making through electing their own male and female representatives in the Shura Council; and commitment to the enforcement of all international human rights covenants and agreements.
b) Releasing all prisoners of conscience, and lifting all travel restrictions on them as well as providing them with moral and financial support, regardless of whether in their peaceful expressions they had represented themselves, a religious sect, or a social or intellectual segment of society.
We are inclined to declare this statement because of our sense of responsibility to our nation and our feeling of national belonging and due to our concerns for the future of the coming generations, and the current widespread problems we are experiencing in light of the failure of government institutions and ministries to adapt to the changes in Saudi society and its needs and aspirations. We assure you that we are ready for reform and equipped for democracy.
[This letter was issued by a number of young Saudi men and women on Saturday night March 5th, 2011. Translation provided by Khuloud. For the original Arabic statement, see here.]

Former Derry woman sentenced for setting three fires
Cheryl Wheaton, 57, of Salem, Mass., pleaded guilty to three counts of arson in superior court, claiming she set the blazes so that police and neighbors would pay attention to other crimes - including a gun incident - that happened in the building.
Wheaton claimed on Wednesday she was abusing alcohol and suffering from bipolar disorder at the time.
The fires happened at the Hillside Estates Condominiums in Derry in July, August and October of 2011.
Judge N. William Delker said he could not ignore that Wheaton set fires during three separate occasions.
"You placed a lot of people in danger of their lives and property," Delker said. "You caused extreme havoc in this case."
Defense lawyer William Gilmore argued that his client was living in a "high crime area" and continued to be neighbors with a man who pleaded guilty to assaulting her. Gilmore described Wheaton's acts as a way to draw attention - and hopefully a police presence - to her building.
"These are fires that were very unsophisticated in their preparation," Gilmore said. "All three fires were actually extinguished prior to the fire department's arrival."
He said after the fires Wheaton was diagnosed as bipolar and now wanted to take responsibility for her actions.
Assistant County Attorney Brad Bolton argued for a three- to six-year prison sentence, saying the assault report arose out of an argument over gardening behind the condominium building.
The neighbor who assaulted Wheaton pleaded guilty in that case, but Wheaton began changing her details of her account while being re-interviewed by police, Bolton said.
Derry police also investigated an incident of a gun being fired at the complex in 2010.
"Given all that, that's not a rationale for setting fires," Bolton said. "People were on edge there for quite a while."
Members of the condominium association even hired their own private security detail in the wake of the blazes, according to Bolton.
Delker said it's unlikely that Wheaton, a grandmother of seven, would re-offend once she is released from prison.
But the judge concluded that a prison term was necessary to show others that such behavior would not be tolerated by the criminal justice system.
"One of the reasons you apparently felt that you needed to resort to this was because you thought criminal justice system did not effectively deal with these issues," he said.
Wheaton also received a pair of suspended sentences, both five to 10 years each, that will remain suspended over the next decade so long as she remains on good behavior.

This is how the AGW panic ends: not with a bang, but with a whimper.
The Economist, which (despite a recent decline) remains probably the best news magazine in the English language, now admits that (a) global average temperature has been flat for 15 years even as CO2 levels have been rising rapidly, (b) surface temperatures are at the lowest edge of the range predicted by IPCC climate models, (c) on current trends, they will soon fall clean outside and below the model predictions, (c) estimates of climate sensitivity need revising downwards, and (d) something, probably multiple things, is badly wrong with AGW climate models.
Do I get to say "I told you so!" yet?

ASIA/INDIA - The religious in India between prophecy and mystic
Mangalore (Agenzia Fides) - To be prophets and witnesses in society, among the challenges of modernity, but at the same time be "mystical", men and women of prayer, a sign of the transcendent: is the commitment of the congregations and Indian communities that gathered in the "Conference of the Religious of India", celebrated yesterday, February 3, in Mangalore, "World Day for Consecrated Life." As reported to Fides, over 570 religious and nuns present reflected on the status and challenges of consecrated life, sharing the "identity crisis" that exists in humanity today.
Sister Jessy Merlyn SMMI (Sisters Minor of Mary Immaculate), rapporteur of the day, remarked that the religious are called to rediscover "the prophetic and mystical dimension " and "creative fidelity" to their vocation. Without "submitting to the power of the world", but rediscovering their original charism, and without identifying too much with institutions and organizations. In the service of apostolate, the religious, when engaged in the educational, health care or social field, should not offer a "corporate service", but rather "offer Christ, testifying his presence, especially among those on the margins of society." Sister Merlyn recalled the document "Consecrated Life", defining the religious "gift of God" who, with the profession of the evangelical counsels, make the characteristics of Jesus constantly visible in the world.
Religious life is not a form of self-realization through isolation, but is a call to live in communion with others, building communities of freedom, brotherhood and justice, he added. "Religious life - he concluded - is a deep dive into the world as disciples of Jesus, and with evangelical radicalism." The participants expressed their desire for renewal in "the ministry of the active life," recalling the many challenges of apostolate that India offers: poverty, marginalization, injustice, caste discrimination, abuse of human rights and human dignity, lack of equal opportunities between men and women, difficult access to education.

Archaeological Dig Unearths Slave History at Georgetown Estatetags: archaeology, Tudor Place, Slave History, African-American
Archaeologists at Tudor Place, an historic Georgetown estate with ties to George Washington, have unearthed artifacts that suggest the former existence of a dwelling for both enslaved and free workers on the site.
A team of archaeologists spent several days in the past week painstakingly digging and sifting through layers of soil in the northeast corner of the Tudor Place garden, in an area called the tennis lot.
"We've been wanting to know about slave patterns at Tudor Place," Jessica Zullinger, director of preservation at Tudor place, said in a phone interview with Patch....

Goodyear Desert Edge Clashes With Peoria Liberty
Two of the top teams in the state clash on Friday night in the west valley as the Desert Edge Scorpions host the Peoria Liberty Lions in Goodyear.
Desert Edge, the 2012 Division III state runner up, is tops in the D-III rankings by Maxpreps and is eighth overall in the state. Liberty, which moved up as part of the realignment, is ranked seventh in Division II and 29th in the state.
Desert Edge opened up the season with a 54-8 home rout of South Mountain last Friday. Anthony Hernandez finished a perfect 8-for-8 for 225 yards and five touchdowns, including three to Elijah Marks. Marks ended with four catches for 124 yards in the victory.
The Scorpions are coming off their best season in school history, finishing 13-and-1 and advancing to the state title game for the first time ever. After a perfect 10-and-0 regular season and three straight wins in the playoffs, Desert Edge lost to Queen Creek 9-7 in the Division III Championship Game at Sun Devil Stadium.
Peoria Liberty opened its season with a tough 42-40 loss at defending Division II champion Ironwood Ridge last Friday in Tucson. The Lions are trying to avoid their first 0-and-2 start since their inaugural season in 2008, which they began 0-and-3 en route to a 6-and-6 finish. Liberty has never had a losing season in five years of football.
The Lions are coming off their second straight 10-and-2 finish. Their only regular season setback last year was a 26-0 home loss to Desert Edge on October 12th. Liberty advanced to the second round of the playoffs before falling to Williams Field, 53-20.
Desert Edge and Liberty have met four times on the gridiron with each team winning twice. Kickoff Friday night in Goodyear is set for 7pm.
