Terrance Dicks is back again. I'm just thinking about this: he did the first proper Target novelisation, thirty-five years ago; he wrote the first of the Virgin New Adventures; he wrote the first of the BBC's Eighth Doctor Adventures; and now he's written the first of this range, putting in print the pilot story, Invasion of the Bane. It's a fairly standard Dicks novelisation, sticking closely to the show as broadcast with a certain undernuancing of the soon-to-be-axed Kelsey; he has a job to do and he does it well enough. ( )
