BBC Books: Eleventh Doctor releases
Friday, 18 March 2011 - Reported by Chuck Foster
The latest in the BBC Books range of Doctor Who novels following the adventures of the Eleventh Doctor and his companions are due for release on the 28th April 2011:
Doctor Who: Dead of Winter (available for pre-order)
by James Goss
"The Dead are not alone. There is something in the mist and it talks to them."
In a remote clinic in 18th-century Italy, a lonely girl writes to her mother. She tells of pale English aristocrats and mysterious Russian nobles. She tells of intrigues and secrets, and strange faceless figures that rise from the sea. And she tells about the enigmatic Mrs Pond, who arrives with her husband and her physician.
What she doesn’t tell her mother is the truth that everyone knows and no one says – that the only people who come here do so to die.
A thrilling, all-new adventure featuring the Doctor, Amy and Rory, as played by Matt Smith, Karen Gillan and Arthur Darvill in the spectacular hit series from BBC Television.
Doctor Who: The Way Through the Woods (available for pre-order)
by Una McCormack
"As long as people have lived here, they've gone out of their way to avoid the woods..."
Two teenage girls disappear into an ancient wood, a foreboding and malevolent presence both now and in the past. The modern motorway bends to avoid it, as did the old Roman road. In 1917 the Doctor and Amy are desperate to find out what’s happened to Rory, who’s vanished too.
But something is waiting for them in the woods. Something that’s been there for thousands of years. Something that is now waking up.
A thrilling, all-new adventure featuring the Doctor, Amy and Rory, as played by Matt Smith, Karen Gillan and Arthur Darvill in the spectacular hit series from BBC Television.
Doctor Who: Hunter's Moon (available for pre-order)
by Paul Finch
"There's no end to the horror in this place - it's like Hell, and there are devils round every corner."
On Leisure Platform 9 gamblers and villains mix with socialites and celebrities. It’s a place where you won’t want to win the wrong game.
With Rory kidnapped by a brutal crime lord, the Doctor and Amy infiltrate a deadly contest where fugitives become the hunted. But how long before they realise the Doctor isn’t a vicious mercenary and discover what Amy is up to? It’s a game that can only end in death, and time for everyone is running out.

In addition, the 12th May will see a new book released dedicated to the Doctor's greatest foe:
The Dalek Handbook (available for pre-order)
by Steve Tribe and James Goss
Daleks!
The Dalek Handbook is your complete guide to the Doctor’s greatest enemies. It explores the Daleks’ origins on the planet Skaro, how a Time Lord intervention altered the course of Dalek history, and how they emerged to wage war on Thals, Mechonoids, Draconians and humans. It also reveals the secrets of Dalek design, the development of their iconic look and sound, and their enduring appeal on and off the screen.
With artwork and photographs from six decades of Doctor Who, The Dalek Handbook is the ultimate celebration of all things Dalek.
