The Resurrection Casket

Justin Richards — 2006

Starfall - a world on the edge, where crooks and smugglers hide in the gloomy shadows and modern technology refuses to work. And that includes the TARDIS. The pioneers who used to be drawn by the hope of making a fortune from the mines can find easier picking elsewhere. But they still come for the romance of it, or old-fashioned organic mining. Or in the hope of finding the lost treasure of Hamlek Glint - scourge of the spaceways, privateer, adventurer, bandit. Will the TARDIS ever work again? Is Glint's lost treasure waiting to be found? And does the fabled Resurrection Casket, the key to eternal life, really exist? With the help of new friends, and to the horror of new enemies, the Doctor and Rose aim to find out. Featuring the Tenth Doctor and Rose as played by David Tennant and Billie Piper in the acclaimed Doctor Who series from BBC Television.

I've been in a rather steampunk sort of mode and what a great book to read in that vein. It's set in space, it's even a spacefaring sort of society, but everything runs on steam. Love it! Doctor Who meets Steampunk. It had to be done! Rose was... well... rose. The Doctor was his usual self. The TARDIS? Well it got a little messed up what with the wibbly-wobbly-timey-wimey as usual! What else is new? Hide behind the couch because: It's pirates! It's steampunk! It's Doctor Who!
