The Price of Paradise (Doctor Who)

Doctor Who: The Price of Paradise - Colin Brake This is my last Rose/Ten book. It was on order for the longest time at Amazon.ca then they canceled the order, so I ended up getting the book from Amazon UK (where I get my Who books since). It was an average Rose book compared to the others. I liked the idea of a universe where humans are a plague or something so bad the planet is allergic to humans and let's face it as a specie we are kinda to ecosystems all around us. This planet and its inhabitants are interesting and we get two somewhat well rounded characters from them. Of course, Rose runs into a young man she fancies and ends up saving the day with the Doctor. Brake's Doctor is a lot less manic than Tennant's hyper tics, which was a nice change. I'm moving into the Martha era now for the books.
