Review of The Last Dodo by WhoPotterVian

This review contains spoilers
On paper, The Last Dodo's premise of an android who collects the last of every species and preserves them in a museum is an interesting one. In this book, however, it doesn't receive the best execution. There's some fun scenes, such as when a ton of the museum's exhibits end up terrorising people on Earth, but it could have been faster paced, and it doesn't always make sense (I'm still not sure why the Doctor says the creatures are not back in their own times when they're transported outside the museum because the museum doesn't have time travel, when it must have time travel capabilities to obtain the last of each species in the first place).
It's not a bad Doctor Who book, but it's not the best either. It's a wholly average affair.
