Science Fiction
Based on the beloved Doctor Who episode of the
same name by Douglas Adams, the hilarious and brilliant
author of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy,
comes
City of Death… “A nasty, savage race, the universe was glad to see
the back of them…” 4 billion BCE: The Jagaroth, the most powerful,
vicious, and visually unappealing race in the universe
disappears from existence. Few are sad to see them go. 1505 CE: Leonardo da Vinci is rudely interrupted
while gilding the lily by a most annoying military man by
the name of Captain Tancredi. 1979 CE: Despite his best efforts not to end up in
exactly the right place at exactly the wrong time, the
Doctor, his companion Romana, and his cybernetic dog, K-9,
arrive for a vacation in Paris only to discover that they
have landed not only in one of the less romantic periods in
Parisian history, but in a year in which the fabric of time
has begun to crack. It is once again up to the Doctor to uncover an audacious
alien scheme filled with homemade time machines, the theft
of the Mona Lisa, the resurrection of the Jagaroths, and
the
beginning (or possibly the end—it is all quite complicated,
you see) of all life on Earth. Some holiday indeed…
