Four new Doctor Who books were recently announced, two novels, one book of adventures and a puzzle book.
Doctor Who: In Wonderland
In this crossover of Doctor Who and Alice in Wonderland by Paul Magrs, The Doctor and his companions visit the dreaming spires of peaceful Oxford, hoping for a brief respite from their travels. But when Lewis Carroll appears at a garden party and their fellow guests transform into animals, they realise that everything is not as it seems. An unknown cosmic foe has trapped them in a twisted version of Alice’s Wonderland. Separated from the TARDIS and from each other, their only hope of escape lies in cryptic clues teased by fan-favourite characters from Carroll’s classic tale.
Doctor Who: In Wonderland by Penguin Books is available from multiple retailers.
Doctor Who: Death in the Stars: A Melanie Bush Mystery
In this debut novel by Bonnie Langford with Jacqueline Rayner, Mel Bush on one of her own adventures between departing the Seventh Doctor’s TARDIS in Dragonfire and reuniting with the Fourteenth Doctor in The Giggle.
When young Mel’s business partner, Sabalom Glitz embarks on yet another “get rich quick” scheme, it marks the start of an epic, death-defying murder-mystery in space. After barely escaping the snares of a murderous galactic cult, Mel searches for fellow survivors in a nearby spaceship graveyard – while Glitz looks to fill his pockets. But the discovery of a spaceship with its crew in suspended animation and incredible secrets on board leaves the duo stranded with no way off. Mel revives the crew – and then the murders start. Murders that cannot possibly have been committed by any of the crewmembers. In fact, there are only two realistic suspects – Glitz and Mel.
Fans can read an excerpt from Doctor Who: Death in the Stars, now available in hardback or audiobook from these retailers.
