Telos Publishing has released details and cover illustrations for three of its unofficial Doctor Who reference books due out in 2006 in a press release now on the website. The press release is reproduced below; click on each thumbnail for a larger version of each book's cover illustration.
Telos has also announced that its Time Hunter series, a spinoff from its now out-of-print Doctor Who novellas range, will be coming to an end in 2006. Says publisher Stephen James Walker: "The Time Hunter novels always tell exciting stand-alone stories, but readers who've followed the series regularly will probably have spotted that we've been gradually dropping more and more hints about the 'back story' to the adventures of Honore and Emily. In the final three novels, and in particular in the concluding title, Child of Time by George Mann, the full picture will be revealed at last - and there are some real surprises in store! We have been planning this for a long time, and I think readers will find these three final Time Hunter tales a fitting climax to the series." The three books will includeThe Albino's Dancer by Dale Smith in April 2006, with the other two to be released later in the year. (Thanks to Telos Publishing)
Published in March 2006 Talkback: The Unofficial and Unauthorised Doctor Who Interview Book Volume One: The Sixties is edited by Stephen James Walker.

Talkback brings together an incredible collection of interviews with the people behind the early years of the BBC's classic science fiction adventure series Doctor Who. From directors to designers, producers, story editors, writers and cast, all are featured in this latest addition to Telos's acclaimed range of factual books about Doctor Who.

Talkback is available to order now in a standard paperback edition, or as a deluxe signed and numbered, limited edition hardback.

In June 2006 we publish Timelink: The Unofficial and Unauthorised Guide to the Continuity of Doctor Whoby Jon Preddle.

Timelink presents an in-depth exploration of the complex continuity of the world's longest running science fiction television programme. Over fifteen years in the making, Timelink offers a different perspective on the history of the Universe as told through the many adventures of the Doctor, and presents fresh theories and solutions to some of the series's many continuity anomolies and discrepancies.

The book covers both the original series which ran from 1963 to 1989, the one-off Paul McGann TV Movie of 1996, and the 2005 Doctor Who revival helmed by Russell T Davies.

Timelink is available to order now in a standard paperback edition, and as a deluxe signed and numbered, limited edition hardback.

Later in 2006 Telos will follow the broadcast of the second season of the new 2006 Doctor Who series with a companion volume to our acclaimed 2005 series guide, Back to the Vortex.

Second Flight: Back to the Vortex II - The Unofficial and Unauthorised Guide to Doctor Who 2006 is, like it's predecessor, written by J Shaun Lyon and picks up where Back to the Vortex left off. Second Flight continues the story of the development of Doctor Who as David Tennant takes over the TARDIS from Christopher Eccleston and embarks on a 2005 Christmas special ('The Christmas Invasion') as well as a second series of adventures in time and space.

Second Flight reveals the background to the series, from the announcements, to the press releases, casting calls, the highs and lows, and the return of the dreaded Cybermen.

The book also features detailed analysis of the new adventures, facts and figures, and exclusive review commentary from an international panel of writers and critics.

Second Flight is available to order now in A5 paperback edition and in a signed and numbered, limited hardback edition.
