Publishing Notes

 * 1974 saw the first wave of new Doctor Who novelisations. Predominantly featuring the Third (new) Doctor in recently televised adventures.
 * Script writers were encouraged to fill out their scripts with more detail, giving a larger word count than some of the later novels.
 * These early books continued with the Frederick Muller tradition of including black and white illustrations.
