Puffin Books has announced (see the press release) that they too are getting into the 50th Anniversary mood with a series of eBooks each priced at £1.99, released one per month and featuring in turn each Doctor.
This is clearly the pattern everyone is going to use though Puffin are very particular about how they will reveal each title.
The Titles
Details will be revealed each month as follows:
- First Monday (January 7th for the first title) the author is revealed on the BBC Worldwide Facebook page
- On the 11th of the month a video featuring the author will appear on the BBC Worldwide Doctor Who YouTube channel
- On the 23rd of the month the title will be available.
On the 23rd of November along with the Eleventh Doctor title a paperback anthology of the eleven stories will be available priced £7.99.
Juliet Mathews, Publisher, Penguin Children’s says:
‘Penguin Children’s has been the proud home of children’s Doctor Who publishing for eight years and to be part of the 50th anniversary is incredibly exciting. We are delighted to have eleven sensational children’s authors involved in the series, all bringing an individual style, imagination and interpretation to their eshort tribute to The Doctor. This is a who’s who of children’s fiction coming together to celebrate the much-loved Doctor Who.’
