Un dialogo serrato e scintillante di ironia fra una scrittrice rompiscatole di oggi e Celsius, abitante del futuro. Un'antiutopia tagliente che prende l'avvio da un evento storico lontano nel tempo, o forse appena avvenuto: l'eruzione del Vesuvio nel 79 d.C., e la conseguente distruzione di Pompei.

Still stranded in the Louisiana countryside, Will, Danny, and Gaby race against the clock to get back to their friends, but the road home is treacherous, and enemies lie in wait. Meanwhile, Lara and the survivors at Song Island continue preparations for an inevitable attack. But what does a third-year medical student know about fending off a full-frontal assault?

It is AD 79, and the TARDIS lands in Pompeii on the eve of the town's destruction. Mount Vesuvius is ready to erupt and bury its surroundings in molten lava, just as history dictates. Or is it? The Doctor and Donna find that Pompeii is home to impossible things: circuits made of stone, soothsayers who read minds and fiery giants made of burning rock. From a lair deep in the volcano, these creatures plot the end of humanity—and the Doctor soon finds he has no way to win.
