Michael Kilgarriff reads this gripping novelisation of a classic 1967 TV adventure featuring the Second Doctor, with Nicholas Briggs as the Cybermen

The Cybermen – silver, indestructible monsters whose only goal is power – seem to have disappeared from their planet, Telos.

When a party of archaeologists, joined by the Doctor, Jamie and Victoria, land on the Cybermen’s barren, deserted planet, they uncover what appears to be their tomb. But once inside it becomes clear that the Cybermen are not dead, and some in the group of archaeologists desperately want to re-activate these monsters! How can the Doctor defeat these ruthless, power-seeking humans and the Cybermen?

tomb-cybermen-cd1Michael Kilgarriff, who played the Cyber Controller in the original BBC TV serial, reads Gerry Davis’ complete and unabridged novelisation, first published by Target Books in 1978. Sound effects and music are provided by Simon Power, and Nicholas Briggs provides the authentic voices of the Cybermen themselves.

      Tomb of the Cybermen and The Five Doctors were my first ever Doctor Who stories, and Tomb of the Cybermen is my favorite Troughton story.

    I bet Matt Smith himself will probably buy this, considering that Tomb of the Cybermen is said to be his favorite Doctor Who story.

      Of course he would probably also buy the DVD so he could watch the actual story 😉

      Because it was designed in the 70’s and that was the most recent one at the time probably. I am only guessing like haha

      All these years and I’d never noticed that! The cover is the original Target book cover from the 70s

      To quote the artist Jeff Cummings; “I know, I know! It’s the wrong Cyberman!!”
