Doctor Who: Shada Book Review

Shada the incomplete Doctor Who story from Tom Baker’s Era has been finally released in book form.  The season 17 story that was partially filmed but was scrapped due to a strike at the BBC is now a getting an update by writer Gareth Roberts.  The remaining footage has been released by the BBC in a VHS special way back in 1992 and Big Finish did a version of it with Paul McGann taking over for Tom Baker in the role of the Doctor. 

So now we have the book and the question is does Shada keep the charm and quirkiness that original writer Douglas Adams had intended?
