Freebie postcard from Vworp!
The teenager got me this book for my birthday on the strength of it being publicised at Vworp! I think we were both a little disappointed with the reality which is capsule biographies of various women in Doctor Who not, as we'd somehow thought, new short stories about them. Still, there is lots of pretty artwork and it's the kind of thing I would have loved as a child/teenager getting into the fandom - though I'm less clear how much demand there is for this kind of thing in the age of the Internet.

With the rest of the crew panicking and screaming, Cass calmly teleported them to safety and then sent a distress signal. When the Doctor arrived to rescue her in his TARDIS, Cass refused to go with him; in her eyes, Time Lords were no better than Daleks with the blood of billions on their hands. The Doctor tried to persuade her that he wasn't like other Time Lords, or even part of the Time War. But Cass preferred to crash and die than be saved by an "enemy" she so despised."
