About this ebook

A 2,000 year old statue of Rose Tyler is a mystery that the Doctor and Rose can only solve by travelling back to the time when it was made. But when they do, they find the mystery is deeper and more complicated than they ever imagined.

While the Doctor searches for a missing boy, Rose befriends a girl who it seems can accurately predict the future. But when the Doctor stumbles on the terrible truth behind the statue, Rose herself learns that you have to be very careful what you wish for.

An adventure set in Roman times, featuring the Tenth Doctor as played by David Tennant and his companion Rose Tyler.

Ratings and reviews

The tenrose content is incredible in this, I enjoyed their dynamic so much! But the plot eventually got very convoluted and, although explained quite well, was confusing and felt forced. HOWEVER that is very much a doctor who thing so it's on brand

Flew through it. Couldn't put it down. Just when you thought it was over, the doctor suprises you with more.

Definitely worth the read. Interesting twists and turns, all that fun wibley wobley timey wimey stuff! :)
