Dalek I Loved You (GOLLANCZ S.F.) - Hardcover

"An unadulterated nostalgia-fest written with fun, wit and love. I'm a number of years younger than Griffiths and of a different sex, but I've rarely read anything that so reflects my own opinions and feelings about the series and more besides. If friends, parents and partners don't quite comprehend a fan's love for the Doctor, this is the book that might help them get there." (DR WHO MAGAZINE)

"He conjures up just how mind-blowing it was for an ordinary suburban kid to be transported to a realm of danger and rampant sci-fi imaginings. " (James Lovegrove FINANCIAL TIMES)

"If I am getting carried away, it is the fault of Griffiths's awfully charming memoir of boyhood and Doctor Who, with its deft evocations of eight-year-old invincibility and embarrassing school discos as well as arguments about Cybermen vs Autons or Jon Pertwee vs Tom Baker. Griffiths's chatty, self-deprecating style is disarming..." (THE GUARDIAN)

Popbitch's favourite new memoir. (POPBITCH)

... he writes with such wit and warmth, and a strong line in observational humour. (THE DAILY MAIL)

"A funny and warm confessional, with the message of hope that you can be a functioning Doctor Who fan and still manage to find a partner and a life - and a renewed interest in toy Daleks." (WATERSTONES BOOKS QUARTERLY)

"Dalek I loved You is a gentle and delicious dip into the past. A piece of personal time travel that is well worth the trip." (John Berlyne SF REV.COM)

"A fascinating take. Surprisingly this work, though seemingly trivial, is maturely written and will probably be appreciated by future social historians. Of interest to the SF fan, it also successfully captures the sense of fun the genre evokes. Easy to read and very entertaining, this book is a delight." (CONCATENATION.ORG)

... the book Nick Hornby would have written if he'd spent his life obsessing over Doctor Who rather than footie. Nostalgic and funny. (THE MAIL ON SUNDAY)
