Cameron McEwan’s Unofficial Doctor Who: The Big Book of Lists is lavishly illustrated flexbound softcover book, which gives the front and back cover as well as the spine a premium feel while protecting the content inside and keeping the suggested retail price affordable at $21.99 in the USA, 12.99 in the UK and $23.99 in Canada. This is a nearly three  hundred pages of lists though. Just trivia lists, but the presentation and variety as well as it’s inclusive nature up to the current Doctor at the time of this posting is what makes this book an amusing companion for fans of all ages.
