 Rating:  - Something Wicked This Way Comes...It's the day before Halloween in the small New England town of Blackwood Falls. Every home is decorated with jack-o-lanterns, ghosts and goblins; the children are choosing their costumes from Tozier's Costume Emporium, and the adults are making the final preparations for the town's annual Halloween Carnival. But Halloween in Blackwood Falls will be anything but ordinary this year... Rick Pirelli and his best friends Thad and Scott love Halloween. Before they head off to pick up their costumes, they notice an eerie green glow coming from the base of a tree in Rick's backyard. The tree, with bark as black as pitch, gave the town of Blackwood Falls its name. The boys unearth an ancient book filled with strange symbols, and unwittingly set into motion a chain of events that will endanger the entire town. The Doctor and Martha arrive just as an ominous green mist descends upon Blackwood Falls. The mist seems to be coming from the exact spot where the boys found the strange book. The unnatural fog soon has people in the town feeling uneasy, and the Doctor notes that it seems to be feeding off people's deepest fears. When monstrous creatures called Hervoken begin attacking residents of Blackwood Falls, the Doctor and Martha are the town's only hope. Can they stop the growing threat before it's too late? This is one of my favorite Doctor Who novels. Mark Morris did an excellent job in capturing the spirit of the television show while still making the story his own. The Doctor and Martha are portrayed very well, and there are a lot of fun references to past adventures. Forever Autumn is a great Halloween read for any Doctor Who fan. Rating:  - FantasticThis is a fantastic book I loved reading it. It is very easy to read with not a lot of complicated characters swirling the book around. Excellent. 5 star. Rating: - Doctor Who-Forever AutumnGood plot, excellent prose, funny and scarey. I have read most of the Docter Who books and this is one of the best for portraying the Doctor an Martha as they are on TV. The Doctor is jokey & genuinely funny, at the same time thoughtful & eccentric as ever. Martha is nice & sincere. This book is definately One of our favourites.Mark Morris is one of the best Doctor Who writers to date. Rating: - Very Good Story to readThis is a Really good book to read. It one of them books you can not put down and you have to read the next chapter! And it all starts from a book which they find under a tree whats happens you will have to get the book and read it! Rating:  - Forever AutumnIn this 16th new series novel the 10th Doctor and Martha land in modern-day America, and find that the horrors of Halloween are being turned into reality by the uncovery of an alien book by three children. Halloween is an appropriately spooky festival for Doctor Who to play with, and this novel features some pleasantly outlandish monsters, but at it's heart this is a rather generic storyline featuring another group of aliens and their crashed space-ship, and the denoument is similarly standard fare that long-term fans will recognise from numerous adventures in the past. Younger readers (who, let's face it, are the novels target audience) will find this a pleasantly spooky read, but older readers may well find that beyond a few surface scares 'Forever Autumn' doesn't really have anything new to offer beyond being a variation on old ideas. As a television episode this story would succeed or fail on the strength of the monster special effects, as a novel 'Forever Autumn' is professional but slightly bland fare.
