Overview
This Doctor Who Target Collection brings together ten full-length novelisations spanning the show's classic and modern eras, from Tom Baker's Fourth Doctor to Jodie Whittaker's Thirteenth. Each brand-new paperback expands on its televised story with extra scenes, character insight, and the fast-paced storytelling that made the original Target range a beloved fixture of British childhoods. It's a ready-made library for any Whovian, wrapped up in ten adventures across time and space.
About the Books
The Target novelisation range has been putting Doctor Who adventures into print since the 1970s, and this set gathers ten stand-out entries from BBC Books. The Pirate Planet and City of Death, both based on Douglas Adams scripts and novelised by James Goss, bring wit and cosmic scale to the Fourth Doctor era. The Crimson Horror sees Mark Gatiss novelise his own Victorian mystery, while Robert Shearman revisits the story that reintroduced the Daleks in Dalek. The Witchfinders, by Joy Wilkinson, was the first Thirteenth Doctor story to join the Target range. Elsewhere, Steven Moffat's The Day of the Doctor marks the show's 50th anniversary multi-Doctor epic, Russell T Davies's Rose retells the 2005 revival, James Moran's The Fires of Pompeii sends the Tenth Doctor to AD 79, Rona Munro's The Eaters of Light explores Roman Scotland, and Jenny Colgan's The Christmas Invasion revisits the Tenth Doctor's dramatic debut. Together they form a rich cross-section of the show's history, written largely by the original screenwriters, giving each book an authentic voice beyond what fitted on screen. Whether picked up individually or read as a set, these paperbacks make brilliant introductions for new fans and treasured additions for collectors.
