TEDW 3

The third issue of The Essential Doctor Who was centred on the depiction of the alien worlds that have been visited over the course of televised Doctor Who.

Publisher's summary
"There are worlds out there where the sky is burning, where the sea's asleep and rivers dream. People made of smoke, and cities made of smog."

Doctor Who is unrivalled for the array of alien worlds and cultures it has depicted since the programme began in 1963. The adventure continues to unfold across an awe-inspiring universe of strange and often dangerous planets.

For the first time, the fact and fiction of these planets is explored in a comprehensive and richly illustrated publication. This is the ultimate guide to the Doctor's travels through space.
