Author	Andrew Smith
ISBN	0426201507

After a two year hiatus, the Target audio range returned earlier this year and I couldn't have been more delighted at the selection of titles headed to audiobook. Among them was the fondly remembered adaptation of what I consider to be one of the better fourth Doctor stories, Full Circle.
