Publishers Summary

At the heart of the ruined city of Arcopolis is the Fortress. It's a brutal structure placed here by one of the sides in a devastating intergalactic war that's long ended. Fifteen years ago, the entire population of the planet was killed in an instant by the weapon housed deep in the heart of the Fortress. Now only the ghosts remain.

The Doctor arrives, and determines to fight his way past the Fortress's automatic defences and put the weapon beyond use. But he soon discovers he's not the only person in Arcopolis. What is the true nature of the weapon? Is the planet really haunted? Who are the Eyeless? And what will happen if they get to the weapon before the Doctor?

The Doctor has a fight on his hands. And this time he's all on his own.

Characters

• The Doctor

Notes

• This is the first book in the Tenth Doctor Adventure series to only feature one person on the top half of the cover, namely the Doctor, and is the first in which he is not travelling with a companion.

References

This story presumably takes place after the events of Journey's End due tothe fact that the doctor is alone, so with the last story to feature Donna with him, it makes sense for this to be after Journey's End as Donna is no longer in it. Possibly it may be a story which is involved between the adventures of Voyage of the Damned and Partners in Crime with the Doctor in the Tardis on his own.

Continuity

To be added
