81. Doctor Who Quick Reads: The Sontaran Games, by Jacqueline Rayner.

The Tenth Doctor is between adventures when he lands in an elite sports academy. As usual, he stumbles across a nefarious plot, hidden aliens, and some humans for him to bring out the best in.

As previously mentioned, a good friend introduced me to Dr Who and I quickly became enamoured with the series. So when I saw this book at a library sale (for 50c!) I automatically picked it up. First thing I noticed was that when they say "quick read" they really aren't kidding - I think it took me twenty-five minutes from cover to cover. It reads rather a lot like fanfiction to me, but the Tenth Doctor is very much in character, which made me happy. Decent story, but really rather too short for it to be explored in enough detail to satisfy.
