Publisher's summary

The TARDIS lands on Phobos, moon of Mars - where extreme sports nuts of the future indulge their passion for gravity-boarding and wormhole-jumping. But there's something lurking in the shadows, something infinitely old and infinitely dangerous. It's not for nothing that 'Phobos' is the ancient word for 'fear'...

Notes

Continuity

• The idea of a god-like entity pushing its way through from another universe feeding on emotions was explored in greater detail in BNA: Where Angels Fear and BNA: Twilight of the Gods.
• BFA: The Fearmonger also features an entity which fed off of fear.
• BFA: Deimos, like Phobos, is named after the Martian moon on which it takes place. It also features space tourists encountering an ancient threat. Both stories note the meaning of their name in Greek, "dread" and "fear", respectively.
