' Even Time Lords die... '

When a dissident Time Lord group inadvertently caused the destruction of an entire civilisation through interference, its members vowed to repent by serving the Universe not as gods of Time but as mere men. Many years later, this peaceful resolve is severely tested when two of their number are killed — and the Doctor's seventh incarnation becomes embroiled in the struggle against the apparently unstoppable General Tannis.

Plagued by ominous portents, the Doctor and his companion Antimony must race across the Universe, taking in the Santine Republic, the Great Orion Nebula and the frozen heart of the Canisian Empire, Meanwhile the mysterious Minister of Chance battles his own inner demons, and former Tardis traveller Ace finds herself in training for a destiny she never dreamed possible. Matters reach a terrible climax when Tannis' next target for subjugation is identified. Exactly how much is the Doctor prepared to sacrifice in order to save Earth?

First webcast on BBCi and also featuring Sophie Aldred, Anthony Stewart Head and Jacqueline Pearce . Death Comes to Time is an original audio adventure uniting elements from the Doctor's past with bold and original ideas for his future.

First published in 1885, 'Huckleberry Finn' is one of the undoubted masterpieces of American literature.

'Cordially hated and dreaded by all the mothers of the town because he was idle, and lawless, vulgar, and bad �?? and because all their children admired him so', Huckleberry Finn, the fourteen-year-old son of the town drunkard, joins runaway slave Jim on an exciting journey down the mighty Mississippi River on a raft.

"It's the best book we've had. All American writing comes from that. There was nothing before. There has been nothing as good since."
ERNEST HEMINGWAY
