review:

'Doctor Who: Touched By An Angel' is the 46th new Doctor adventure and features the 11th Doctor along with Amy and Rory. It took a bit for me to get into it, but once I did, I had a lot of fun reading this one.



In 2003, Rebecca Whitaker died in a road accident, witnessed by a stone angel. Ten years later, her husband Mark is still grieving her loss. When he receives an envelope full of instructions on how to save her, he is thrown back in time with a chance to change his life. The problem is that this is exactly what the weeping angels want and the Doctor is out to stop it. Every time Mark tries to change his future, the Doctor, Amy and Rory show up to try to get things back in line. Hilarity ensues with a series of events around Mark's wedding to Rebecca where the doctor has to intervene to get her to the church on time, replace her wedding dress and fetch an errant bouquet. Will Mark save Rebecca this time?



The book addresses the questions we all have about living our lives over again. It was light and funny at times, and downright poignant at others. I enjoyed it quite a bit. I found the characterizations of 11 and Amy and Rory to be spot on. Well done.



I received a review copy of this ebook by Rando House UK-North America, BBC Books and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
