Doctor Who: The Jade Pyramid – Matt Smith reads this exclusive audio story featuring the Eleventh Doctor and Amy Pond.

Intercepting a distress call, the TARDIS is drawn to a Shinto shrine in medieval Japan, where the Doctor and Amy are met by village elder Shijô Sada. He explains that the ogre-like mannequins surrounding the holy site are harmless guardians, called Otoroshi.

At the heart of the temple is an ancient jade pyramid, so sacred that only the monks may look at it. But the Shogun, the ruler of Japan, wants to possess the pyramid and has ordered seven samurai and a band of soldiers to come to Kokan and seize it.

Whilst the Doctor is tracked by a ninja assassin, Amy discovers what happens to trespassers at the shrine. Soon the secrets of the jade pyramid – and the towering Otoroshi – will be known…

Written specially for audio by Martin Day, ‘The Jade Pyramid’ is read by Matt Smith, who plays the Doctor in the acclaimed hit series from BBC Television.

Due for release on 06/01/2011

    i dont think that you should pit a ninja aganst the doctor because it just seems a bit weired where you put one that is about stealth and fighting wjere the other just runs in every direction possible

    I much preferred some of the Tenth Doctor novels than all of the Eleventh Doctor ones. “Apollo 23″ was OK, but it wasn’t amazingly good.

    how can anyone be disspointed with the books so far. Apollo 23, By Justin Richards is amazing, i read it in 2 days, and the kings dragon, By Una McCormack is even better also read it in two days. musch better stories than the 10th and 9th doctor books in my opion.

    I’ve been disappointed with every Eleventh Doctor novel and audiobook, except “The Coming of the Terraphiles”. I hope this, along with the three new novels due out in 2011 – “Dead of Winter”, “The Way Through the Woods” and “Hunter’s Moon” – will be much better. :smile:

    I think the Orotoshi might turn out to be Autons as it says the Orotoshi are mannequins.
