New Series Books

October and November will see a windfall for unofficial books based on Doctor Who, including the new series, such as the following:

Back To The Vortex is now in release. Written by Outpost Gallifrey editor Shaun Lyon, the book is the quintessential guide to the first season of the new Doctor Who series, with critical analysis and detailed information on each episode and a plethora of details about the 18-month leadup to the series' broadcast. The book is available in both paperback and limited edition hardcover.

The new edition of Dimensions in Time and Space by Mark Campbell will be released on October 20 from Scificollector. This is an updated version of Campbell's book which includes the first season of the new series; Tom Baker provides the foreword. The author will be at its launch on October 20 at the Stamp Centre on the Strand. The cover illustration is below.

Back In Time: A Thinking Fan's Guide to Doctor Who by Steve Couch, Tony Watkins and Peter S. Williams, is due in late October or early November from Damaris Publishing; the book appears to be an analysis of the new series with an emphasis on religious, scientific and critical overtones. The cover illustration is also below.
