Feast of the Damned review  
Why yes I have spent the past thirty hours listening to David Tennant audio-books, what?

Not really a review but a play-by-play, and maybe comments at the end. Or maybe not I've been up for 35 hours what do you want from me?

Love this book. I like Tennant's Rose voice but OMG HIS JACKIE VOICE IN THE STONE ROSE IS THE BEST THING EVER. (BUT OF COURSE BECAUSE THAT BOOK IS THE BEST THING EVER. EVER!!!!)

Also, I love when he says 'the Doctor nodded' in his Scottish accent. That is now the hottest sentence in the English language as far as I'm concerned.

EVERYTHING about the Stone Rose is best ever, and that's why I'm saving re-listening for last. Because I know it's amazing. I just wish there were more Rose audio-books out there I honestly don't know why I shy away from the other companions so far

I love how smoothly he just swaps between accents and pitches on a dime. Though sometimes like that argument between Mickey and Keisha gave a bit of an obvious "same person playing this" pause.

I know, I'm the same. I have every Rose tie-in novel but none of any of the other companions. And it's because I'm cheap - I REALLY REALLY wanted the Rose ones. Stone Rose was the first I read - by total fluke because I didn't know about the immense awesome shippiness. Also because I was on two trips to the UK in the space of a month and they had buy one get one free offers, so I bought ALLLL of them. I haven't wanted to buy the other companions enough to shell out money on them, also haven't seen as awesome an offer. Some day. Maybe.

David is love. The sheer joy of his natural accent and flipping to the Doctor voice is amazing. Also, did he read any of the other audiobooks? Because I was kinda 'eh, not David, don't really NEED to get those...'

Ah, the curse of the cheap. I entirely understand XD I have friends across the water that slightly less of an imposition and one who lives down the street from where they film, and so got to hug DT around the time s3 was filmed. :| :| /jealousy.

And he's really quite good at it, with his 500 accents, and ability to transmit facial expresions with voice. The Eleven audiobooks? I don't know. I found it too depressing to check.

He has done a whole plethora of non-DW books, though. My current favorite being Starter for Ten.

What? WHAT? WHAT? There are David audiobooks? Why the hell don't I live in the UK? *curses the gods*
At least I have the physical copies of the Rose books (some of which I had to order from Amazon.UK because they were out of print in the US). *sniffles*

BTW, I'm with you. I have a hard time buying the other companion books, though I have a few Donna ones (but only the ones that got high ratings on Amazon). Not that I don't love Martha, but America seems obsessed with her, which of course turns me off to her. The same with Moffat and Eleven. *sigh*

Yesss, he did the audiobooks during his era. I don't know if that's normal, or if he just said "I can do it lemme!"

I would love to have a physical copy of Stone Rose to just take along and read anywhere I wanted. As far as Rose's voice goes, that's probably better because DT just...doesn't quite manage her pitch/tonage.

Is America obsessed with her? I hadn't noticed. I don't dislike Martha, but I'm pretty...tepid about her. She's a companion, and awesome in her own ways, like any companion, but I didn't find anything spectacular about her that set her apart from other companions, y'know?

As for Moffat and Eleven...I like that he made Jack and Rory, but I haven't really been a fan of anything else he made. S5/Eleven included (Which is not to say I dislike them, so much as I don't love them and feel something is missing.)
