Revenge of the Slitheen was a novelisation based on the 2007 television story Revenge of the Slitheen. It was published simultaneously with the novelisations of Invasion of the Bane, Eye of the Gorgon, and Warriors of Kudlak, and was thus tied with those three books as the first novelisation of a Doctor Who-related television production since the 1996 release of The Novel of the Film.
