The Last Dodo

The Last Dodo is a BBC Books original novel written by Jacqueline Rayner and based on the long running science fiction television series Doctor Who.

Upon being asked where she wants to go next, Martha chooses the zoo, falling back on childhood memories which appears to upset the Doctor who later admits the idea of animals in cages hurts him.

Frank is detained by Eve, who then also captures the Doctor since he is the Last of the Time Lords, while sending Martha off with another museum worker to retrieve another last one specimen.

Upon being told the plan, the Doctor points out it wouldn't work as since the Universe is constantly expanding, by the time Eve finishes killing off one civilization, billions more will have already been created, meaning her collection can never be complete.

Attempting to find out Eve's codes so they can retrieve the displaced animals, the group is confronted by Frank who plans to use one Dodo egg to destroy MOTLO and escape with his cash.

An abridged audio book was released in July 2007 by BBC Audiobooks and read by Freema Agyeman (Martha Jones in the television series).
