The Mutants
Book

A massive shape scuttles out of the darkness and strikes the earth Overlord down. It is a Mutant - a huge insectoid creature. It moves is a crouch, its back arched and scaly, with huge knobbly vertebrae. The controllig Overloird, the Marshal, has ordered all such Mutants killed instantly.

What is happenning to the people of Solos? Why are they gradually turing into monsters? Hands that become claws, flesh that turns scale-like ...

When the Doctor meets the Marshal and Jaeger, he realizes that all is not as it appears to be. The Marshal has a sinister plan to gain control of this planet, and the Doctor must save Solos from this mad earthman, as well as save the Solonians themselves.
