Doctor Who is not just one of the world's longest-running science fiction TV shows, but it's also generated a prolific amount of tie-in books, often with strong literary merit. Join Jason from the Trap One Podcast on a solo journey through the Target novelizations, in publication order.

Episode 111 - The Seeds of Death (with Mark from Trap One -- LIVE)
It's late April 2024, but Doctor Who Literature takes us back to mid-February, and to the Gallifrey One convention in Los Angeles, where Mark from the Trap One Podcast joined me over dinner for a My Dinner With Andre-style conversation about the 1969 Doctor Who serial The Seeds of Death, and its 1986 novelization by Terrance Dicks.
You can view My Dinner With Andre in full here.
The Proclaimers appeared on Late Night With David Letterman in March 1989.
Big Blue Marble was a long-running 1970s/'80s PBS series produced in part by Rick Berman (yes, that Rick Berman). You can view an episode here. The opening theme (sampled in this episode) features lyrics by Berman, music by Paul Baillargeon, and vocals by Whitney Kershaw.

Episode 110A -- Find Your Fate: Mission to Venus (with Tony Whitt)
This week Doctor Who Literature is NOT covering a Target book. 1986 was a bumper year for Doctor Who fiction, and, in the States, Ballantine Books got in on the action with both the man in the blue box, AND the still going-strong Choose Your Own Adventure craze, with a series of six books in the Find Your Fate series.
Joining me to read through -- and play -- this book is my old friend Tony Whitt of the Doctor Who Target Book Club Podcast, without which this show might not exist. Tony never holds back on his opinions, and we both have a lot to say. And not just about Doctor Who.

Episode 110 Part I -- The Celestial Toymaker (with James Goss)
Welcome to the first of two planned episodes about the 1966 Doctor Who serial The Celestial Toymaker. The episode eventually spawned a TV sequel ... in 2023, The Giggle. The novelizations of both stories were released in 1986 and 2024 respectively.
Joining me this week is James Goss, author of the Giggle novelization, and we spend about 90 joyous minutes talking about both books.

--James Goss recently appeared on Trap One.
--Shannon Patrick Sullivan's A Brief History of Time (Travel).

Episode 109A - Harry Sullivan's War (with Jim Sangster)
1986 saw the release of the first two Companions of Doctor Who novels, original full-length books rather than novelizations of Doctor Who TV serials. There would only be one more after this one. Harry Sullivan's War was written by Ian Marter, who died tragically young, on his own 42nd birthday, just a couple of weeks after the book's release.
Jim Sangster rejoins me as the guest for this week's book -- and also wrote this week's theme song!
A video for Jim's son is found here. Song written by Jim Sangster and sung by Antony Owen.
The first 8 minutes are an audio essay about the 1986 baseball season. If you're not a baseball fan, you will be after hearing this essay (or not).
Recent guest Dale Smith recently penned an essay about Turlough and the Earthlink Dilemma, the first Companions of Doctor Who novel, covered on this show (by Dale Smith!) just last month.

Episode 109 - Fury From the Deep (with Conrad Westmaas)
Returning to Doctor Who Literature this week is Conrad Westmaas, one of the great friends of this show, who brings news from Big Finish and the convention circuit.
After catching up, Conrad and Jason dive into this week's Doctor Who episode and novelization, Fury From the Deep, which may well be one of the 60 greatest Doctor Who stories of the past 60 years.
A link to the choose-your-own-adventure book by Eric Grissom referenced by Conrad during today's interview.
