A new digital-only e-Book documents four of the Eleventh Doctor’s final adventures from different periods during the 900 year-long Siege of Trenzalore, the storyline that featured in last year’s Christmas special, The Time of the Doctor.
The Ice Warriors are back in Let It Snow by Justin Richards, An Apple a Day by George Mann brings back the Krynoids, Strangers in the Outland by Paul Finch sees the return of the Autons and the Mara is reintroduced in The Dreaming by Mark Morris.
The book’s synopsis reads:
As it had been foretold, the armies of the Universe gathered at Trenzalore. Only one thing stood between the planet and destruction – the Doctor. For nine hundred years, he defended the planet, and the tiny town of Christmas, against the forces that would destroy it.
He never knew how long he could keep the peace. He never knew what creatures would emerge from the snowy night to threaten him next. He knew only that at the end he would die on Trenzalore.
Some of what happened during those terrible years is well documented. But most of it remains shrouded in mystery and darkness.
Until now.
This is a glimpse of just some of the terrors the people faced, the monstrous threats the Doctor defeated. These are the tales of the monsters who found themselves afraid – and of the one man who was not.
Doctor Who: Tales of Trenzalore: The Eleventh Doctor’s Last Stand is available to download from 24th February 2014.
