Doctor Who Quiz Book (series)

Doctor Who Quiz Book was a series of four paperback books published in 1982 and 1983 by Magnet Books, a subsidiary of Methuen Children's Books. Designed to look like the Target Books novelisations - complete with the use of a photograph of Peter Davison as the Fifth Doctor on the cover of each, in keeping with the then-standard cover practice at Target - these are in fact mini-novels. Each chapter tells an original short story featuring the Fifth Doctor, Nyssa and Tegan Jovanka (with Vislor Turlough replacing Nyssa in Doctor Who Quiz Book of Space), setting up a short quiz related to the topic at hand.

All four books were written by Michael Holt, who would later write the Find Your Fate] book Crisis in Space. All four books include illustrations by Rowan Barnes-Murphy.

Four books were published in the series:


 * 1) Doctor Who Quiz Book of Dinosaurs (1982)
 * 2) Doctor Who Quiz Book of Magic (1983)
 * 3) Doctor Who Quiz Book of Space (1983)
 * 4) Doctor Who Quiz Book of Science (1983)
