Maisie Williams' character is getting a novel

[The Wormhole]

Like the limitless potential of Benny Summerfield or River Song, the adventures of Ashildr seems tailor made for Big Finish

We'll have to wait until Capaldi's term is done for that. Big Finish's license only allows them to cover to the end of Matt Smith's run, and won't allow anything from Capaldi's era until after the next Doctor has started.

River can appear on screen whenever Moffat wants her to. The only thing limiting her usage on the show is Alex Kingston's availability.

And Alex Kingston always looks like she's having a blast playing River Song.

So, since this has been out for a month now: has anyone read this yet?

Has anyone read it anywhere? Even on GB, there's only been one review, from someone who got an advance copy.

That cover looks odd. No, I will not read it - or let me put it this way: If I would read novels based on tv shows I would skip this one.
