Summary

Jon Glover reads this novelisation of an outlandish adventure for the Sixth Doctor and Peri.

The TARDIS materialises aboard the Vipod Mor, a galactic survey ship captained by the repulsive Orlous Moston Slarn.

Things are not going well on board the spacecraft. A mysterious killer stalks the infrastructure, and a junior officer - whose body is four years older than his brain - commands its bridge. The craft's computer seems to be developing its own distinctive personality, and Slarn threatens to vent his vindictive anger on his crew.

Soon the Doctor and Peri stumble on a shocking secret, upon which depends the fate of the entire Universe...

Reader Jon Glover played Shelligbourne Grant in the original BBC Radio 4 drama on which Eric Saward's 1986 novelisation is based.
