 The first release in the series was ''[[Turlough and the Earthlink Dilemma]]'', focusing on [[Vislor Turlough]] after he left [[fifth Doctor|the Doctor]]. It stands as the longest novel published in the standard Target Books format which was in use from 1973-1991, though a few releases in the later [[Virgin Missing Adventures]] format were longer.
-This book was followed by the second release of 1986, ''[[Harry Sullivan's War]]''. As the title suggests, it focused on the military exploits of [[Harry Sullivan]]. It is notable for being one of only four instances in which an actor playing a regular character on ''Doctor Who'' was able to write an original, published work featuring that character. Author [[Ian Marter]] is joined only by [[John Barrowman]], [[Tom Baker]], and [[Sophie Aldred]] in the distinction.

 The third and final release broke the format of the imprint somewhat by being a [[K9 and Company (novelisation)|novelisation of]] ''[[A Girl's Best Friend (TV story)|A Girl's Best Friend]]'', the pilot episode of the aborted ''[[K9 and Company]]'' spin-off series. Unlike its predecessors, however, it was published in 1987.
