Doctor Who - The Wheel of IceDoctor Who - The Wheel of Ice by Stephen Baxter
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I decided to read this mainly because of a renewed interest in Doctor Who AND a whim that I should always have read Stephen Baxter's entry into the series.

So, I did. And while I didn't hate it, it suffers from a bit of don't-care-ism. It's the Second Doctor. And while we do see a lot of Jaime (kinda a weird companion at any point) and we spend a lot of time near Saturn, I never quite vibed with either this tale or this particular doctor.

I did want to like it more than I did, of course, and I did enjoy the actual Science bits, but the rest was rather deflating. Alas.
