Sci-Fi Month 2025 - The Friday 56 (With Book Beginnings): The Pirate Loop (Doctor Who: New Series Adventures #20) by Simon Guerrier

 

  

On Friday's I take part in two weekly link ups - The Friday 56, currently hosted by Anne @ My Head Is Full of Books, and Book Beginnings, hosted by Rose City Reader.  For The Friday 56, you choose a book, a book you have just finished, a book you are about to start, your current read, and share a line or a few lines that grab you (but don't spoil anything) from page 56 or 56% of the way through the ebook. Post it and share your post's url on Anne's most recent Friday 56 post. As for Book Beginnings, you share the first sentence or so and your initial thoughts, impressions, or whatever else it inspires, and then link up your post's url with Rose City Reader.

Happy Friday everyone!  This week I'm spotlighting one of my SciFi Month 2025 books, The Pirate Loop (Doctor Who: New Series Adventures #20) by Simon Guerrier.  By the way, SciFi Month is a month long celebration of all things sci-fi and it's hosted by Lisa @ Dear Geek Place, Imyril @ There's Always Room For One More, Annemieke @ A Dance With Books, and Mayri @ Book Forager (Image credit: Artwork by Yuriy Nedopekin).  David Tennant is my favorite Doctor and Martha is one of my favorite companions.  I haven't read enough of the books featuring her character.

Beginning:

Six thousand robots danced through the streets of Milky-Pink City.

56:

"What are you, then?" said Archie the badger space pirate.

"Me? said the Doctor. "Oh, I'm no one important." He grinned. "Well, we're all important, aren't we? But I mean, I'm nobody you want to worry about."
