Talkback, a new three-book series of interviews with just about everyone involved in the classic series of Doctor Who, is edited by Stephen James Walker. The "Talkback" books will collect rare interviews with writers, designers, producers, script editors, actors and many, many other people involved in the making of the series since 1963. The first volume covers the Sixties period and is published in March 2006; further volumes are planned to follow.

Also, Telos will continue its "Time Hunter" series with The Albino's Dancerby Dale Smith, published in April 2006. The novella, part of the continuing series spun off from Telos' original Doctor Who novella line from 2002-2004, "plays with the concepts of time and linear storytelling to great effect: April 1938, and a shadowy figure attends an impromptu burial in Shoreditch, London. His name is Honore Lechasseur. After a chance encounter with the mysterious Catherine Howkins, he’s had advance warning that his friend Emily Blandish was going to die. But is forewarned necessarily forearmed? And just how far is he willing to go to save Emily’s life? Because Honore isn’t the only person taking an interest in Emily Blandish – she’s come to the attention of the Albino, one of the new breed of gangsters surfacing in post-rationing London. And the only life he cares about is his own." (Thanks to Telos Publishing)
