The
Argolin-Foamasi War lasted for
just 20 minutes, during which
time the planet of Argolis was
turned into a blasted cinder
- a radioactive wasteland deadly
to almost all.
The
few surviving members of the
now ageing and sterile Argolin
race made a remarkable decision:
the story of their people and
the husk of their world would
stand as a lesson to the galaxy
about the horrors of war. The
planet would become the most
unlikely of holiday resorts...
To the
Doctor and Romana, Argolis seems
like a restful and fascinating
place to relax after their recent
adventures. They can take in
the beauty of the multi-coloured
shifting sands from the safety
of the towering Leisure Hive,
and catch up with Argolin advances
in the obscure science of tachyonics.
Typically
enough, however, murder and
intrigue follow the time travellers
wherever they go; and a lunatic's
plan to restore Argolis' proud
warrior past could, quite literally,
tear the Doctor and his friend
apart... |
