[Doctor Who · Target-Library 52] • The Ribos Operation

Reluctantly cancelling his well-earned holiday, the Doctor sets off in the

TARDIS to trace and re-assemble the six segments of the Key to Time on which

the stability of the entire Universe depends.

Assisted by the argumentative Romanadvoratrelundar and K9, he lands on the

planet Ribos in search of the first segment and finds himself entangled in the

machinations of two sinister strangers, Garron and the Graff Vynda Ka.

Who are they? Is Garron simply a shady confidence-trickster dealing in

interplanetary real estate? Is the Graff Vynda Ka just a power-crazed exile

bent on revenge? Or are they both really agents of the Black Guardian, intent

upon seizing the precious Key in order to throw the Universe into eternal

chaos?

Risking his life within the monster-infested catacombs of Ribos, the Doctor

has to use all his wit and ingenuity to find out...
