The Master’s Reign of Terror Returns!
The Third Doctor has an epic showdown with his ultimate nemesis in the acclaimed audiobook, Terror of the Master, reissued today as a standalone download.
This three-hour narrated adventure (featuring specially composed music and sound effects) was initially released in January 2021 as part of The Worlds of Doctor Who: Masterful limited edition box set, marking 50 years of the villainous Time Lord (a role originated on screen by Roger Delgado).
World-class actor and impressionist, Jon Culshaw, brings Trevor Baxendale’s story to vivid life, as the Doctor finds himself companion-less between the classic Doctor Who TV stories, The Green Death (1973) and The Time Warrior (1974).
The Worlds of Doctor Who: Terror of the Master is now, for the first time, available to own separately as a digital download for just £9.99, exclusively here.
Terror of the Master by Trevor Baxendale
Dr Derek Drake is a National Treasure – he’s going to solve the energy crisis and stop all pollution. Governments and businesses around the world are signing up to his environmentally friendly campaign. So why is the Doctor convinced this great humanitarian and darling of the media is really the Master in disguise?
What could his greatest enemy hope to gain by improving the lives of everyone on the planet? The Doctor must convince his UNIT friends that they now face the ultimate terror – and that the Master may be in as much danger as they are...
Narrator Jon Culshaw said: “This is a simply brilliant script! It’s such an exciting story that so magnificently captures the essence of the Third Doctor era – and what an era this is! It’s fascinating to look into this unseen window. It was thrilling and an honour to take on the wonderful character, as close as I can, of the Roger Delgado Master.”
Praise for Terror of the Master:
“Terror of the Master is a perfectly pitched send-off for Roger Delgado’s original incarnation of the Master... a delightful slice of 1970s action adventure.”
– CultBox
“Culshaw is an excellent narrator, using his impressive vocal range and variety of impressions to bring to life the Jon Pertwee era.”
– Indie Mac User
“If you told me this was a missing TV story, I would be utterly convinced because this is a pitch-perfect end-of-season 10 story.”
– The Doctor Who Companion
“Thoroughly enjoyable... a worthy celebration of 50 years of the Master in Doctor Who.”
