THE book the Time Lords (including the Doctor) read when studying at the Academy, the full-color in-world history that pieces together the true story of Gallifrey from the many and contradictory accounts that survived the Last Great Time War. Doctor Who: A Brief History of Time Lords tells the story of all of this ancient, legendary civilization, of notable historical figures, of Gallifrey itself, of the Time War and much more. The planet Gallifrey. The Shining World of the Seven Systems. Often to be found in the constellation of Kasterborous. Birthplace of one of the oldest civilizations in the universe: The Time Lords. From their technologies and strategies to the renegades like the Master and the Doctor himself, this is the definitive guide to the oldest and most powerful civilization in the universe. They invented black holes, transmits, stellar manipulators, and they atrophied. A bunch of elderly academics in funny hats, the Time Lords watched the whole history of creation. This was the civilization that inflicted some of its most renowned and deadly renegades and criminals on the universe: the Master, the Rani, the Monk, the War Chief, yet it was also the benevolent power that rid the cosmos of the Great Vampires, the Racnoss and the Fendahl. Featuring full-color, never-before-seen illustrations and a beautiful interior design, this is a highly collectible in-world companion no Whovian can be without. Review: Doctor Who: A Brief History of Time Lords a interesting book - My Grandson loves this book, we gave him this for Christmas and he actually reads it. Review: Great for any Dr. Who fan. - My girlfriend loves it. Well bound. Easy to read print, and classic look for a book.

Introduction to the beginning of Dr. Who
It was pretty good and gave me some history of what went on before..Since I am a pretty new fan (started watching the 13th incarnation -a woman) who I adore by the way. I didn't know anything except he/she was the last of the time lords/ and something happened to all the others..I liked the pics But I'm not sure the pics corresponded to the descriptions..Some pics were of women but described as a male and vice versa which was very confusing to a newbie like me..This is one of the reasons I gave it a 4..plus sentences were repeated over and over again which was quite annoying. As a fast introduction into the Dr. Who mythos it does sort of fit the bill. As the above states it could have been a bit clearer on the characters/labeling would have been nice on some pics..I am glad I read it though and probably will read it again cause it was alot of info to wrap my head around lol.So unless U watched this series from the beginning or have lots of moola to watch all the episodes this is a beginner point.

A Quick Read of their history...sort of.
The Doctor fascinates me to no end. He drops hints of his past across multiple incarnations and where he came from but that is what they are, hints. Here it is all pulled together and summarized, think of it like a Cliff Notes version. And it's so much bigger on the inside and the story is still going.......

Dr. Who must have
Really great book for any Doctor Who fan. It's loaded with really great pictures and goes through the history of the time lords so I thought it was really cool. The cover of the book is really nice and the gold lettering and art looks great. More than worth the money.

Un libro che non può mancare nella libreria di un vero Whovian. Bello, ricco di nozioni sul mondo dei Time Lords e delle bellissime rappresentazioni grafiche. N.B: è scritto in lingua inglese.
