Doctor Who Extended Media Review – The Decades Collection 1970s The Cradle by Tasha Suri

The Cradle was the second novel in the 60th anniversary Decades Collection from Puffin Books. It was written by Tasha Suri and featured The Twelfth Doctor.

The Doctor becomes involved with Seema, a young Indian girl, struggling with the violent death of her father and the racist milieu of 1970’s Britain. The Twelfth Doctor despite his outward persona interacts well with young teens as he and Seema meet up with her friends and encounter an alien entity that tuns out to be somewhat benevolent in nature in the end. 7 out of 10.
