Code of the Krillitanes - Doctor Who

Justin Richards

Blurb: 'I blame those new Brainy Crisps. Since he started eating them, he's been too clever by half.'

Can eating a bag of crisps really make you more clever? The company that makes the crisps says so, and they seem to be right.

But the Doctor is worried. Who would want to make people more brainy? And why?

With just his sonic screwdriver and a supermarket trolley full of crisps, the Doctor sets out to find the truth. The answer is scary - the Krillitanes are back on Earth, and everyone is at risk!

Last time they took over a school. This time they have hijacked the internet. Whatever they are up tom it's big and it's nasty.

Only the Doctor can stop them - if he isn's already too late...

The Men Who Stare at Goats (Jon Ronson)

The Men Who Stare at Goats

Jon Ronson

Blurb: In 1979 a secret unit was established by the US Army. Defying all known military practice - and indeed the laws of physics - they believed that a soldier could adopt a cloak of invisibility, pass cleanly through walls, and, perhaps most chillingly, kill goats just by staring at them. They were the First Earth Battalion. And they really weren't joking. What's more, they're back and fighting the War on Terror. So unbelievable it has to be true - this is the real-life account that inspired the film.
