Review of Space Babies by RandomJoke

21 May 2025

By now I think I made my Thoughts on the TV Episode clear: Flawed and not a favorite but by no means one of the worst like many others would say.

Having now read this Novelization, I do think I like this one more than the actual TV Episode, does it more than say the Target for Rogue? No. It doesn’t expand much, mostly fleshing out a few Things that were otherwise a bit clunky in the TV Episode. But really it didn’t have to in my Eyes, because a big Bonus of this Novelization is the Fact it’s Prose. Now some might disagree with it, but I think for me the actual Visuals of Space Babies are a bit uncanny. The Mouth Movements of the Babies feel very odd and I simply don’t like them. Now, I do think they did the best with what they were able to do, but it’s not a perfect Story for being live action. So the lack of any Visuals honestly helped me much more to enjoy the Story. Again, it’s not as of a major Step-Up to other Novelizations such as Rogue or Day of the Doctor, but it doesn’t really have to. It does a solid Job and I enjoyed my quick read throughout!
