Doctor Who celebrates its 60th anniversary on November 23rd. Three new specials featuring the Fourteenth Doctor (David Tennant), Donna Noble (Catherine Tate), and the debut of the Fifteenth Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa) will soon be available on the BBC. Three Saturdays in a row, on November 25, December 2, and December 9, the BBC will broadcast the specials. Outside of the UK and Ireland, they will stream onDisney+.

Fans frequently refer to Doctor Who as a canonless program. The show and the expanding media become more complex or even contradict each other. However, that fits in wonderfully with this “timey-wimey” series, which features multiple timelines and alternative universes.

During the “Wilderness Years,” which ran from 1989 to 2005, Doctor Who was not broadcast. There was still a ton of fresh information. Zines were released by fans with essays and stories. 94 new Doctor Who books were published by Virgin Books. Paul McGann played the Eighth Doctor in the television film in 1996. During the break, Big Finish began producing audio dramas, many of which starred actors from the TV series. A few books from this era were turned into TV episodes after the TV show returned in 2005.

In total, there are hundreds of Doctor Who novels available in multiple series—including a cookbook! So, here are some suggestions prior to the anniversary specials. Spoilers, as River Song would say!

Among the most inventive and significant Doctor Who books ever written is this one. The Seventh Doctor transforms into a human in 1914 England in order to relate to his companion Bernice’s sorrow. Later, Cornell turned his own book into a two-part television series featuring the Tenth Doctor and Martha called “Human Nature” and “The Family of Blood.” Here, the Doctor has different reasons even though the backdrop and concept are same. In order to hide from the Family of Blood—aliens who wish to devour a Time Lord—the Doctor transforms into a human on television.

Characters from the revived TV series appeared in middle grade and young adult novels published by BBC Books starting in 2005. The Clockwise Man, starring Rose Tyler and the Ninth Doctor, was the first NSA book. Counting only NSA novels, there have been sixty-three published.

Comic books, graphic novels, and NSA novels with fresh stories never seen on television are available for purchase. Novelizations, on the other hand, tell the story and add to already-aired TV shows, occasionally resolving continuity problems in the process.

There are plenty of Ninth Doctor audio dramas, comics, and novels available. This is thrilling because, despite regretting leaving the program after just one season, Christopher Eccleston set the bar for the new Doctors series.

In addition to narrating audiobooks of the three Tenth Doctor novels—The Stone Rose, The Resurrection Casket, and The Feast of the Drowned—David Tennant also played the role of the Tenth Doctor. Mickey finds a Roman statue in the British Museum that is identical to Rose in the movie The Stone Rose. It IS a statue of her, since this is Doctor Who, and Rose and the Doctor will soon be traveling to the Roman Empire via the TARDIS. The fans particularly adores this book for Rose and the Tenth Doctor’s kiss.

Yaz, Ryan, and Graham are in the last days of the Roman Empire in this Thirteenth Doctor adventure. Mandip Gill, who portrayed Yaz on the program, narrated the audiobook. This narrative may have been too costly to shoot because of the armies and aliens in it. Particularly fascinating is the Legion of Smoke, a secret club from ancient Rome. When historical characters believe extraterrestrials are wizards or witches, things get tense.

This book provides answers to inquiries from readers such as: What was Rose Tyler’s life like following “Journey’s End”? Many years later, Rose is happily wed to the half-human, half-Tenth Doctor, known as the Meta-crisis Doctor. He goes by John Smith, the Doctor’s regular on-screen pseudonym. Mia is John and Rose’s teenage daughter. Rose Tyler and Empress Rose, a planet-conquering, alternate-universe Rose, are introduced to the Eighth and Eleventh Doctors.

I have both Doctor Who coloring books, and I adore them. The first one is arranged by Doctor and has more Classic Who. Collages of the first through the twelfth doctors are included because it was released during Peter Capaldi’s tenure as the doctor. There are also numerous difficult, abstract patterns featuring the TARDIS and Daleks. Adult coloring books often use this style, however I like to color individuals and situations rather than patterns.

Though both coloring books are lovely, I think this one is better. The chronological order of the Doctor’s travels is determined by the eras he has visited. It features fewer collages and abstract drawings, more line art of individual episodes, and more of my favorite era of the Tenth Doctor and his companions. It was therefore simpler and more engaging for me.

Beginning in 2021, there have been a number of crossovers between Doctor Who and classic works of public domain literature.

This is a delightful adventure with Donna and the Tenth Doctor, and I enjoy any retelling of the King Arthur mythology! Donna is obviously infatuated with Lancelot. The contradicting versions of the Arthurian legends have a science fiction explanation: alternate dimensions.

One fan theory claimed that the Doctor was Merlin in an other dimension. This hypothesis bothers me since Merlin acting abusively would not be consistent with the Doctor’s persona. According to several medieval Arthurian legends, Merlin helps Uther Pendragon rape Igraine, which is how Arthur becomes pregnant. The Doctor is clearly NOT Merlin, even in Legends of Camelot, even without bringing up the subject of sexual assault.

“The Curse of the Black Spot,” a pirate TV program featuring Amy and Rory, featured the Eleventh Doctor. This book takes a whole different tack with Eleven, Clara, and River. I always like pirate escapades and hearing Clara and the Doctor argue sweetly. An 18th-century British man phones the Doctor in this Treasure Island-inspired tale after treasures are taken at King George II’s coronation. While there are undoubtedly alien mists in this book, other topics covered include colonization and pirates’ participation in the slave trade.

Romance author Alisha Rai was interviewed by BR’s Jenn Northington back in 2016 to discuss her expectations for Doctor Who. She recommended that Donna get back in touch with the Doctor, retrieve her memories, and see a female doctor! After more than seven years, this still appears accurate.

These are only a few of the hundreds of Doctor Who novels out there for you to read, but they’re a fantastic place to start while you wait for the specials celebrating the 60th anniversary!
