Plot summary
The TARDIS arrives on Tiermann's World. Professor Tiermann and his family live alone here in a futuristic, fully automated Dreamhome, protected by a supposedly impenetrable force shield. An enormous alien creature called the Voracious Craw is heading towards their home with the intent to devour everything. But the Craw is not the only enemy - outside sabre-toothed tigers roam a frozen landscape, and the Dreamhouse itself turns against its occupants.
Reception
Sick Building won Best Book in the 2007 Jade Pagoda Awards.[4]
Audiobook
An abridged Audiobook version was released in March 2008 by BBC Audiobooks and read by Will Thorp, who played Toby Zed in the TV series two-part story, "The Impossible Planet"/"The Satan Pit".
