Howling:The Name of the Doctor and The 7th Doctor Matrix Novel

When I was rewatching the Name of the Doctor I started to think about the 7th Doctor novel Matrix and some similarities with them

Both stories features a corruption of the Doctors history in the novel the Valeyard calling himself the Ripper has changed each of the Doctors lives and made them evil there are 12 shadow figures (wraiths) which are reveled to be the Doctors waiting for the 7th to join them. The 1st, 4th and 5th are seen The 5th Doctor was turned on Androzani, which was also mentioned as one of the places which the Doctor died.

Each features a graveyard and the TARDIS being used as something else in the novel a vessel for the Dark Matrix it is referenced to as a crypt and a doorway which has all of the 13 Doctors faces on it as well as the word "The Doctor". Before he enters he hears mocking words like The Whisper Men mock the Doctor and Clara.

In the novel the Doctor had lost his memories on getting them back he is said to hear "Have you ever thought what it's like to be wanderers in the fourth dimension?" but that is just a great line to use.A-Smk ☎  21:06, June 11, 2013 (UTC)
