Novelisation

  • This novelisation is based on the original television serial TV: Kinda which was written by Christopher Bailey and shown from 1 February 1982.
  • The cover and information on the right are for the original Target edition. It featured a photographic cover. (See below for information on editions with different covers).

Publisher's summary

1984 edition

Nothing could disturb the serene peace of the planet Deva-Loka - or could it? An expeditionary force from Earth is dangerously out of control—and it’s not only from the peaceful race of the Kinda who are at risk…

A gentle stroll in the lush jungle leads the Doctor and Adric to an unexpected confrontation-and puts them at the mercy of a maniac

But it is Tegan, lulled to sleep by mysterious wind-chimes, who comes the closest to the real danger that threatens not only her sanity but the existence of the whole planet…

Writing and publishing notes

  • This was the final novelisation to use a fully photographic cover, and it was the final Target novelisation to feature the Doctor as part of the main art until The Savages was published several years later.
  • Although number #84 in the Doctor Who library, the book was actually the 83rd to be released; this was because it was swapped in the publication order with the novelisation of Snakedance late in the day without the numbers being reassigned.
