2.5 stars. Pretty enjoyable in general--with Rose making herself useful and all--but the parts with Mickey felt more like plot devices than really ¨believable¨ (as far things get believable in the Whoverse anyway), and the aliens were, uh, ridiculous. Not supposed to be, OK. Still. Giant porcupines and all.

I also would have liked to see a certain conversation take place at the end between Rose and the Doctor, considering what they had had to do in the second half of the novel. The ethical implications were huge, and definitely not the kind of stuff you should conveniently ignore and swipe under the rug.
