Cover blurb:
The Doctor and his friends materialize in the jungle paradise of the planet Deva Loka — but soon discover things are far from what they seem.

Members of an Earth Survey team are disappearing one by one. Those that are left suspect the Kinda, a peaceful native tribe. But the Doctor suspects a far more deadly influence is at work...

Tegan, the Doctor’s companion, is taken over by a sinister force known as the Mara that seeks to plunge Deva Loka into destruction and chaos — a particularly nasty snake in this garden of Eden...

Peter Davison — the fifth Doctor — reads this abridged version of the novel by Terrance Dicks.

Cover blurb:
Janet Fielding reads this novelisation of an intriguing adventure for the Fifth Doctor and friends

On the serene planet Deva Loka, an expeditionary force from Earth is dangerously out of control. It’s not only the peaceful race of the Kinda who are at risk.

A gentle stroll in the lush jungle leads the Doctor and Adric to an unexpected confrontation — and puts them at the mercy of a maniac.

But it is Tegan, lulled to sleep by mysterious wind-chimes, who comes closest to a danger than [sic] threatens not only her sanity, but also the existence of the whole planet.

Janet Fielding, who plays Tegan in the BBC TV series, reads Terrance Dicks’s novelisation of the four-part 1982 television adventure by Christopher Bailey.
