Speaking of which, the Doctor is awful here, probably the worst characterisation yet. Admittedly, the characterisation bears little resemblance to any EDA before or since, for which we must be thankful, but the entire book is posited on the idea of the Doctor having hit his head on something at the beginning of the story so he can act dumb enough to fulfil the plot functions. Come back Jo Grant, all is forgiven. And the logic is just stupid. Nick Walters must have the luck of the gods on his side to have scored this rare piece of quality from Black Sleep.
Dominion is a very frustrating book.
It's very different from other EDAs, which is both a blessing and a curse. It's strengths are in its ideas and its attention to alien detail, but even here it feels poorly recycled. It crashes, and the Doctor and Fitz are locked out. Meanwhile people in a small town in Sweden have been kidnapped. Of course, but that is what Doctor Who is all about.
