John Leeson stars in this exciting novelisation of a classic adventure for the Fourth Doctor - and the introduction of K9.

A mysterious cloud drifts menacingly through space, and the Doctor becomes infected with the Nucleus of a malignant Virus that threatens to destroy his mind. Meanwhile, on Titan, human slaves prepare the Hive from which the Virus will swarm out and infect the universe. In search of a cure, Leela takes the Doctor to the Bi-Al Foundation, where they make an incredible journey into the Doctor’s brain in an attempt to destroy the Nucleus.

Can the Doctor free himself from the Nucleus in time to reach Titan and destroy the Hive? Luckily he has help ― in the strangely dog-like shape of a mobile computer called K9…

John Leeson, who was the Voice of K9 in the TV series, reads this unabridged novelisation of the 1977 television serial.

Thoroughly enjoyable!

5 stars

I enjoyed this audiobook adventure so much that I managed to listen to the whole story in a single day! While the science is, of course, wildly improbable at best, the tense atmosphere created by the story itself, the narration and the sound effects made realism the least of my worries. I loved the revolting descriptions of the nucleus and could easily envisage the Doctor and Leela despite not having seen the televised version of The Invisible Enemy. It was fun to meet K9 here too!
