The peace and quiet of a remote homestead in the
1880s American West is shattered by the arrival of
two shadowy outriders searching for 'the healer'.
When the farmer refuses to help them, they raze
the house to the ground using guns that shoot
bolts of energy instead of bullets...
In the town of Redwater, the Doctor and Martha
learn of a snake-oil salesman whose patent
medicines actually cure his patient. But when the
Doctor and Martha investigate they discover the
truth is stranger, and far more dangerous.
Caught between the law of the gun and the deadly
plans of intergalactic mercenaries, the Doctor and
Martha are about to discover just how wild the
West can become...

Castle Extremis – whoever holds it can control
the provinces either side that have been at war for
centuries. Now the castle is about to play host to
the signing of a peace treaty. But as the Doctor
and Martha find out, not everyone wants the war
to end.
Who is the strange little girl who haunts the
castle? What is the secret of the book the Doctor
finds, its pages made from thin, brittle glass?
Who is the hooded figure that watches from the
shadows? And what is the secret of the legendary
Mortal Mirror?
The Doctor and Martha don't have long to find the
answers – an army is on the march, and the castle
will soon be under siege once more...

Earth, 2099. Global warming is devastating the
climate. The polar ice caps are melting.
In a desperate attempt at preservation, the
governments of the world have removed vast
sections of the Arctic and Antarctic and set them
inside huge domes across the world. The Doctor
and Martha arrive in SnowGlobe 7 in the Middle
East, hoping for peace and relaxation. But they
soon discover that it's not only ice and snow that
has been preserved beneath the Dome.
While Martha struggles to help with an infection
sweeping through the Dome, the Doctor discovers
an alien threat that has lain hidden since the last
ice age. A threat that is starting to thaw.

The Doctor has his TARDIS to get him from place to
place and time to time, but the rest of the Universe
relies on more conventional transport... From the
British Space Programme of the late twentieth century
to Earth's Empire in the far future, from the terrifying
Dalek Fleet to deadly Cyber Ships, this book documents
the many starships and spacestations that the Doctor
and his companions have encountered on their travels.
He has been held prisoner in space, escaped from the
moon, witnessed the arrival of the Sycorax and the
crash landing of a space pig... More than anyone else,
the Doctor has seen the development of space travel
between countless worlds.
This stunningly illustrated book tells the amazing story
of Earth's ventures into space, examines the many alien
fleets who have paid Earth a visit, and explores the
other starships and spacestations that the Doctor has
encountered on his many travels...
