The latest Target Books adapt stories straight from this this year’s season of Doctor Who and are out now!

 

Three stories from the 2024 season of Doctor Who have been novelised in the classic Target Books style and are on sale now. They’re hitting bookshelves alongside a new paperback edition of The Church on Ruby Road, previously released as a paperback.

There will also be audiobooks for the three new texts. Clare Corbett reads Space Babies, having previously read Thirteenth Doctor novel The Good Doctor. Though readers might know her best for her narration of The Girl on the Train. 73 Yards is read by Susan Twist, who appears briefly as a hiker in the television episode but, of course, appears briefly in every episode of the season. Finally, Rogue is read by versatile narrator Dan Starkey, who fans know mainly for playing various Sontarans since 2008.
