Doctor Who:
Shining Darkness

Publisher: BBC Books
September 2008

For Donna Noble, the Andromeda galaxy is a long, long way from home - but some things never change.

Caught up in a struggle for the future of the galaxy, Donna and the Doctor discover that the differences between humans and robots aren't as clear-cut as they might at first seem.

Shining Darkness is, ostensibly, an exciting adventure involving space battles, robots, malevolent aliens and the threat of war encompassing an entire galaxy. But - hopefully not too unsubtly - it's also a story about tolerance, difference, multiculturalism and the threat to our society from racism and intolerance.
