Cover blurb:
Launched into space 350 years ago, a meteor is returning to Earth — and inside it waits Nemesis, a silver statue made of the living metal validium, the most dangerous substance in the Universe.

Evil powers await the statue’s return: the neo-Nazi de Flores and his stormtroopers; Lady Peinforte, who saw Nemesis exiled in 1638 and has propelled herself forward in time; and the advance party of a Cyberman invasion force.

And in the garden of a Windsor pub, the Doctor and Ace are enjoying the timeless sounds of a jazz quartet...

This story celebrates 25 years of Doctor Who on television.

Cover blurb:
‘It’s all over, Ace. I’ve lost, I can only surrender. The Cybermen will have the Nemesis.’

Launched into space 350 years ago, a meteor is returning to Earth. Inside it waits Nemesis, a silver statue made of the living metal validium, the most dangerous substance in the universe. Evil powers await the statue’s return: the neo-Nazi de Flores and his stormtroopers: Lady Peinforte, who lost Nemesis in 1638; and the advance party of a Cyberman invasion force. But only one person has the power to activate Nemesis: the statue’s creator, the Doctor.

In this story, the Cyberleader was played on screen by David Banks, who is the author of the recently published Doctor Who New Adventures novel Iceberg.
