BBC Books To Reissue Seven Classic Doctor Who Target Novelizations

BBC Books will yet again re-release a bunch of Classic Doctor Who Novelizations that where out during the 70's to early 90's.  The books first published by Target will feature one Doctor from that range.  The first seven to come out will be released on April 28th and the titles will be Doctor Who and the Zarbi by Bill Strutton (First Doctor); Doctor Who and the Web of Fear by Terrance Dicks (Second Doctor); Doctor Who and the Dinosaur Invasion by Malcolm Hulke (Third Doctor); Doctor Who and the Genesis of the Daleks by Terrance Dicks (Fourth Doctor); Doctor Who: The Visitation by Eric Saward (Fifth Doctor); Doctor Who: Vengeance on Varos by Philip Martin (Sixth Doctor) and Doctor Who: Battlefield by Marc Platt (Seventh Doctor) all with covers by artist Chris Achilleos who also drew three new covers for The Visitation, Vengeance on Varos and Battlefield.  It is worth buying the books for the covers alone.

BBC Books Ebook - Doctor Who: Devil In The Smoke - An Adventure For The Great Detective

In the same vein as The Melody Malone ebook that was released in conjuction with The Angels Take Manhattan now comes an ebook to tie in with The Snowmen.  The Devil in the Smoke An Adventure
For The Great Detective is written by Justin Richards and will be released on December 18th. Here is the synopsis:

Madame Vastra, the fabled Lizard Woman of Paternoter Row, knew death in many shapes and forms. But perhaps one of the most bizarre of these was death by snow…

On a cold day in December, two young boys, tired of sweeping snow from the workhouse yard, decide to build a snowman – and are confronted with a strange and grisly mystery. In horrified fascination, they watch as their snowman begins to bleed…

The search for answers to this impossible event will plunge Harry into the most hazardous – and exhilarating – adventure of his life. He will encounter a hideous troll. He will dine with a mysterious parlour maid. And he will help The Great Detective, Madame Vastra, save the world from the terrifying Devil in the Smoke.
