Synopsis
When a naval cruiser sinks in mysterious circumstances in the North Sea, all aboard are lost. Rose is saddened to learn that the brother of her friend, Keisha, was among the dead. And yet he appears to them as a ghostly apparition, begging to be saved from the coming feast...the feast of the drowned. As the dead crew haunt loved ones all over London, the Doctor and Rose are drawn into a chilling mystery. What sank the ship, and why? When the cruiser's wreckage was towed up the Thames, what sinister force came with it? The river's dark waters are hiding an even darker secret, as preparations for the feast near their conclusion...Featuring the Doctor and Rose as played by David Tennant and Billie Piper in the acclaimed hit series from BBC Television, this work is written by Justin Richards. It is read by David Tennant, and includes author interview by David Darlington of "Doctor Who Magazine".

Customer Reviews

Great
Feast of the Drowned is a great adventure, a drowned ship, whose lost (presumed dead) occupants are now appearing to relatives in need of help "before the feast". Unfortunately either I wasn't listening fully or it wasn't explained, I didn't get what the feast was...Nor did I fully understand several other elements, I imagine reading it would help me understabd it though...

Despite this its brilliant! Well worth the cost

Long live the Doctor!
I do hope the rest of the Doctor Who books get put to audio book and even more that David Tennant will read them, as he brings the stories alive. Find all those adventures they had while off screen. I used to have my mother read me to sleep as a child and now I have a sexy scot instead, definately an improvment!

Get these audiobooks
OK, why buy the CD version of the story for an extra five quid or so? Because it's read by David Tennant, and if you're like me and love the way his voice just bleeds with enthusiasm you'll want to give this a try. He reads the prose sections in his natural accent before effortlessly switching to the voice of the Doctor, as well as all the incidental characters - a cleaning lady, an American admiral, an Indian shopkeeper, a little old lady from Edinburgh... I won't lie and say Rose and Mickey didn't give him a bit of trouble, but in this format the book feels far more like a real extra episode of Doctor Who, perfect for banishing those "end of series" blues!
