Make Your Own Adventure with Doctor Who, released in the United States as Find Your Fate, was a series of six novels released in 1986 in the UK and American markets and, for the first two novels, the Australian market. The novels were gamebooks, allowing the reader to alter the plot of the novel based on options given every few pages. Most of the books feature the Sixth Doctor on his own, except for two books that featured Peri Brown, one featuring Vislor Turlough and one featuring K9. Most of the books were written by people who had written for the television series.

The American editions were published by Ballantine Books as part of a larger Find Your Fate line which also included game books based on James Bond, Indiana Jones, G.I. Joe, Transformers and Jem.
