On the negative side, there are some very old-fashioned gender stereotypes among the human characters, the Sontarans and even more the Rutans are taken in a direction that isn't awfully consistent with what else we know about them, and the physics of locating a human colony on the surface of the planet Saturn may not have been completely thought through. (Located there for the hydrogen mines, you see.) So on the whole I'm afraid it's a thumbs down for this one. The Tenth Doctor decides to take in a flower show. Saturn colony Chelsea 426 is holding it's first annual flower show to unveil the plants grown from spores discovered in Saturn's soupy atmosphere. But the plants aren't just plants. They're Rutans, bent on staging an ambush on their thousands-years enemies, the Sontarans. But the Sontarans have decided to get the drop first on the Rutans. The small colony dome is invaded both from within and without, and the inhabitants have no idea what's going on. Only the Doctor can save them! Like lots of Doctor Who, fun and unlikely. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

The Time Lord battles the Sontarans, in this pacy novel from the bestselling Doctor Who range The Chelsea Flower Show - hardly the most exciting or dangerous event in the calendar, or so the Doctor thinks. But this is Chelsea 426, a city-sized future colony floating on the clouds of Saturn, and the flowers are much more than they seem.As the Doctor investigates, he becomes more and more worried. Why is shopkeeper Mr Pemberton acting so strangely? And what is Professor Wilberforce's terrible secret?They are close to finding the answers when a familiar foe arrives, and the stakes suddenly get much higher. The Sontarans have plans of their own, and they're not here to arrange flowers...Featuring the Tenth Doctor as played by David Tennant in the hit Doctor Who BBC Television series.

This book was a lovely read and portrayed the Doctor and the Sontarans very well. Loved a bit of a back story between the Songarans and the Ratuns. This book I feel was well written and is on the list of my favourite Doctor Who books ( )
