    Woot! My question has at last been answered!

    So, I have until April to catch up on my backlog of reading material. Or considering how long it takes Amazon.com to get Who books to the US, I have until around September or so.

    Covers and blurbs:



    Apollo 23
    Written by: Justin Richards

    'For a few moments this afternoon, it rained on the moon...'

    An astronaut in full spacesuit appears out of thin air in a busy shopping centre.

    Maybe it’s a publicity stunt. A photo shows a well-dressed woman in a red coat lying dead at the edge of a crater on the dark side of the moon – beside her beloved dog ‘Poochie’. Maybe it’s a hoax. But as the Doctor and Amy find out, these are just minor events in a sinister plan to take over every human being on earth. The plot centres on a secret military base on the moon – that’s where Amy and the TARDIS are.

    The Doctor is back on Earth, and without the TARDIS there’s no way he can get to the moon to save Amy and defeat the aliens. Or is there? The Doctor discovers one last great secret that could save humanity: Apollo 23.

    Night of the Humans
    Written by: David Llewelyn

    ‘This is the Gyre – the most hostile environment in the galaxy...’

    250,000 years’ worth of junk floating in deep space, home to the shipwrecked Sittuun, the carnivorous Sollogs, and worst of all – the Humans. The Doctor and Amy arrive on this terrifying world in the middle of an all-out frontier war between Sittuun and Humans, and the countdown has already started. There’s a comet in the sky, and it’s on a collision course with the Gyre...

    When the Doctor is kidnapped, it’s up to Amy and “galaxy-famous swashbuckler” Dirk Slipstream to save the day. But who is Slipstream, exactly? And what is he really doing here?


    The Forgotten Army
    Written by: Brian Minchin

    'Let me tell you a story. Long ago, in the frozen Arctic wastes, an alien army landed. Only now, 10,000 years later, it isn’t a story. And the army is ready to attack.’

    New York – one of the greatest cities on 21st century Earth... But what’s going on in the Museum? And is that really a Woolly Mammoth rampaging down Broadway? An ordinary day becomes a time of terror, as the Doctor and Amy meet a new and deadly enemy. The vicious Army of the Vykoid are armed to the teeth and determined to enslave the human race. Even though they’re only seven centimetres high.

    With the Vykoid army swarming across Manhattan and sealing it from the world with a powerful alien force field, Amy has just 24 hours to find the Doctor and save the city. If she doesn’t, the people of Manhattan will be taken to work in the doomed asteroid mines of the Vykoid home planet. But as time starts to run out, who can she trust? And how far will she have to go to free New York from the Forgotten Army?

    Lovely covers, I look forward to (probably not) reading them.

    I look forward to buying them in a boxed set in Tesco for £2.99 then putting them on the shelf never to be looked at again.

    I must say the logo looks a lot better in context as here and on the new figure packaging.

    The first cover is a bit poor but I really like the others - the overall design is excellent. Wish I had time for these books but I lost track of the range after 'Winner takes All', five years ago!

    Those covers scream pulp fiction.
    Pity. I have no understanding of the word. It is not registered in my vocabulary bank. EXTERMINATE!

    They don't look anything like Pulp Fiction

    Maybe it involves him standing backwards in a wind tunnel
