RealWorld

Nothing O'Clock was the eleventh Puffin eshort released to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who, this time featuring the Eleventh Doctor. It was originally the last in the series before the release of Lights Out the following year.

Publisher's summary

Thousands of years ago, Time Lords built a Prison for the Kin. They made it utterly impregnable and unreachable. As long as Time Lords existed, the Kin would be trapped forever and the universe would be safe. They had planned for everything . . . everything, that is, other than the Time War and the fall of Gallifrey. Now the Kin are free again and there's only one Time Lord left in the universe who can stop them!
