Time of Your Life
“Organic bugs must be purged from the system, ” the screen told him. “Then, more succinctly, “You die.”
The Network broadcasts entertainment to the planets of the Meson system: Death-hunt 3000, Prisoner: The Next Generation, Bloodsoak Bunny… Sixteen channels, and not one of them worth watching. But for the citizens of poverty-stricken Torrok, television offers the only escape from a reality too horrible to face.
Angela, a young inhabitant of Torrok, leaps at the chance to travel to the Network with a hermit who calls himself The Doctor. However, all is not well on the giant, chaotic space station. A soap star has murdered his wife’s lover, the robotic regulars of Timeriders are performing random kidnappings, and a lethal new game show is about to go on the air.
Can The Doctor uncover the cause of the apparently random disturbances – or will his appearance as a competitoron Death-hunt 3000 be the last of his life?
