Target novelisation

The Target novelisations were a series of novels published by Target Books and later by Virgin Books and then BBC Books, using the Target brand.

Most novels were adaptations of Doctor Who serials, although a few were adaptations of audio stories, or radio plays.

Up until 1988, most books were also published in a hardcover edition that, in many cases, predated the publication of the paperback by many months and, in some cases, were not published until long after the paperback.

The numbering of the novelisations was introduced in 1983, with the first seventy-three books retroactively renumbered in alphabetical order (although not every book had a numbered edition). The books from #74 onwards were predominantly numbered in the order of publication, with a few notable exceptions.
