Mummy Adventure - By: Jay, 01 Oct 2007
For many thousands of years SUTEKH had waited... trappedin the heart of an Egyptian Pyramid. Now at last the time had come - the moment of release, when all the force of his pent-up evil & malice would be unleashed upon the world... The TARDIS lands on the site of UNIT headquartersin the year 1911, & the Doctor & Sarah emerge to fight a terrifying & deadly battle... against Egyptian Mummies, half-possessed humans - & the overwhelming evil power of SUTEKH!

Sarah is characterized especially wellin this book, making the reader really empathize with her as she struggles to come to terms with concepts as bizarre as Egyptian mummies walking around & building a rocket, but the real surprise is the way the Doctor is handled. The televised story is well known for the moments where the Doctor's alienness are emphasized, but Dicks if anything goes further. There is a brief moment where Sarah realizes how little she actually knows about the Doctor
