When
the Doctor and his friends stray
from their astral plane and
the TARDIS materialises in eerie
alien surroundings, a mysterious
force prevents them from leaving.
Is it a natural phenomenon or
some malevolent intelligence?
Uncanny
occurrences are followed by
encounters with the deadly Zarbi
and their unknown leader, to
whom the travellers fall prey.
With their allies, the Menoptra,
the travellers must discover
how to immobilise the Zarbi,
save the Menoptra from massacre
and rid the planet of this powerful
and horrifying evil.
As a
growing web building begins
to envelop the planet, imprisoning
the travellers in its mesh,
the Doctor must consult all
of his wisdom to escape its
hypnotic power. But what is
at the centre of the web and
from where does it draw its
power? |
