he book deals with long time companion Benny finding her long lost father displaced in time in late 20th century England.While on Earth, her father has set up a motley band of aliens and science fiction fans who work at returning stranded aliens to their homes. However, not long after the Doctor and company arrive, strange things start to happen, so to speak. When all is said and done, we are left with a book that takes fantastic characters and treats them in such a way that if we try hard enough, we can easily think of two or three people we know in real life who are like them.
