The TARDIS lands the Doctor and Martha in the Lake District in 1909, where a small village has been terrorised by a giant, scaly monster. The search is on for the elusive 'Beast of Westmorland', and explorers, naturalists and hunters from across the country are descending on the fells. King Edward VII himself is on his way to join the search, with a knighthood for whoever finds the Beast.
But there is a more sinister presence at work in the Lakes than a mere monster on the rampage, and the Doctor is soon embroiled in the plans of an old and terrifying enemy. As the hunters become the hunted, a desperate battle of wits begins – with the future of the entire world at stake...

A vast starship, seemingly deserted and spinning slowly in the void of deep space. Martha and the Doctor explore this drifting tomb, and discover that they may not be alone after all...
Who survived the disaster that overcame the rest of the crew? What continues to power the vessel? And why has a stretch of wooded countryside suddenly appeared in the middle of the craft?

UK £6.99 US $11.99/$14.99 CDN
It is almost Halloween in the sleepy New England town of Blackwood Falls. Autumn leaves litter lawns and sidewalks, paper skeletons hang in windows, and carved pumpkins leer from stoops and front porches.
The Doctor and Martha soon discover that something
long dormant has awoken in the town, and this will be
no ordinary Halloween. What is the secret of the ancient
tree and the mysterious book discovered tangled in its
roots? What rises from the local churchyard in the dead
of night, sealing up the lips of the only witness? And
why are the harmless trappings of Halloween suddenly
taking on a creepy new life of their own?
As nightmarish creatures prowl the streets, the Doctor and Martha must battle to prevent both the townspeople and themselves from suffering a grisly fate...

Voracious Craw. A gigantic and extremely hungry alien

When it gets there everything will be devoured.

up, and the Dreamhome itself deciding who should or
should not leave, things are
looking desperate...

When the TARDIS makes a disastrous landing in the swamps of the planet Sunday, the Doctor has no choice but to abandon Martha and try to find help. But the tranquillity of Sunday's swamps is deceptive, and even the TARDIS can't protect Martha forever.
The human pioneers of Sunday have their own dangers to face: homeless and alone, they're only just starting to realise that Sunday's wildlife isn't as harmless as it first seems. Why are the native otters behaving so strangely, and what is the creature in the swamps that is so interested in the humans, and the new arrivals?
The Doctor and Martha must fight to ensure that human intelligence doesn't become the greatest danger of all.

The Doctor's been everywhere and everywhen in
the whole of the universe and seems to know all the
answers. But ask him what happened to the Starship
Brilliant and he hasn't the first idea. Did it fall into a sun
or black hole? Was it shot down in the first moments
of the galactic war? And what's this about a secret
experimental drive?
The Doctor is skittish. But if Martha is so keen to find
out he'll land the TARDIS on the Brilliant, a few days
before it vanishes. Then they can see for themselves...
Soon the Doctor learns the awful tr
uth. And Martha learns that you need to be careful what you wish for. She certainly wasn't hoping for mayhem, death, and badger-faced space pirates.

more dangerous.
