Lethbridge-Stewart: Mutually Assured Domination
Hey Guys,
I finally came round to read the fourth adventure of Lethbridge-Stewart ‘Mutually Assured Domination’. Yeah I know I get really confused with the order of the books. This book takes places after ‘Beast of Fang Rock‘ and before ‘Moon Blink‘. This time Lethbridge-Stewart is facing the Dominators which we know from Doctor Who ‘The Dominators’ with the Second Doctor, Jamie and Zoe.
Old acquaintance
In this adventure our Brig works with an old acquaintance that we also know from Doctor Who ‘The Web of Fear’. The Brig doesn’t have a good opinion about the journalist Harlod Chorley. But Chorley stumbles over a few coincidences that all seems to conact to Dominex.
I really like the dynamic between Chorley and Lethbridge-Stewart. The gone both through the same together and handle it really differently. I kinda hope to find them working together more often. Sadly Bill Bishop at in this adventure a really small role.
Dominex
Dominex Industries is a nuclear waste firm that promise cheap energy. People in high places are blended by this promise and make it really hard for the Brig to act against them. The story itself is not one of my favorites. But I love the characters and how the interact with each other. I love to see the Brigs calling friends that are ready to fight with him without much question asked. They are great characters and I love how the old chaps are ready to follow our young Lethbridge-Stewart.
A win
Finally we are at the point were Lethbridge-Stewart is official starting to built UNIT. He is choosing his team and I am real love to meet all this characters again. I already love his team so much. So yeah I will start read the next book as soon as possible. Hopefully I will read the right one next.
