The Gold Archive, also titled The Gold Archive: Invasions of Earth: A Secret History, is reference book published on 31 October 2024 by Penguin Group and written by Mike Tucker and Steve Cole.[1]
It chronicled, from the perspective of UNIT in-universe, the history of alien invasions on Earth, both in the past and future relative to the 2020s. It also featured regularly notes from the Fifteenth Doctor.
Notably, this book saw the first reappearance of many UNIT personnel since their debut in the 2005 Doctor Who tie-in website U.N.I.T., including a reprint of the majority of the text of the short story Project Rooftop [+]Loading...["Project Rooftop (short story)"]. It was also the non-television debut of UNIT personnel introduced in the 2023/4 season of Doctor Who, such as Morris Gibbons and the Vlinx.
Publisher's summary[[edit] | [edit source]]
For over half a century the world has been kept safe from alien invasion by the tireless work of UNIT – the Unified Intelligence Taskforce. Finally, that story has been uncovered.
From the early days working in secret under the command of Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart to the new, modern UNIT organisation under the leadership of his daughter Kate, this secret history exposes the many threats ranged against our world – and how UNIT has saved humanity time and again.
Carefully curated from the top-secret, maximum-security heart of UNIT itself, this never-before-seen account includes declassified case files spanning five decades, technical schematics of recovered alien technology, previously unreleased press reports and testimony from UNIT personnel who witnessed events first hand.
Featuring plenty of input from the Fifteenth Doctor himself, The Gold Archive stands as the ultimate guide to Earth’s invasions.
