'''''Interference - Book Two (The Hour of the Geek)''''' was the second volume of [[Lawrence Miles]]' two-part [[multi-Doctor story|multi-Doctor]] novel ''[[Interference (novel)|Interference]]''. Like the first volume, it was released by [[BBC Books]] on [[2 August (releases)|2 August]] [[1999 (releases)|1999]] and featured the [[Eighth Doctor|Eighth]] and [[Third Doctor]]s alongside their companions [[Sam Jones]], [[Fitz Kreiner]], and [[Sarah Jane Smith]].


==Publisher's Summary==
This was the final book to feature Sam Jones as a regular companion, and it includes one of the only prose-based [[regeneration]]s of the Doctor.
''They call it the Dead Frontier. It’s as far from home as the human race ever went, the planet where mankind dumped the waste of its thousand-year empire and left its culture out in the sun to rot.''


But while one Doctor faces both his past and his future on the Frontier, another finds himself on Earth in 1996, where the seeds of the empire are only just being sown. The past is meeting the present, cause is meeting effect, and the TARDIS crew is about to be caught in the crossfire.

== Notes ==
* This novel is notable for being the only novel to outright change the circumstances of one of the Doctor's regenerations, with the [[Third Doctor]] dying on [[Dust (planet)|Dust]], instead of [[Earth]]. While it was made clear that most of the Doctor's timeline after the change proceeded as normal, the effects the change had on the events of [[TV]]: ''[[Planet of the Spiders (TV story)|Planet of the Spiders]]'', were not made clear. [[PROSE]]: ''[[The Ancestor Cell (novel)|The Ancestor Cell]]'' implies that the Doctor's involvement was averted, as the [[Eighth Doctor]] encountered spiders aboard [[The Edifice (The Ancestor Cell)|the Edifice]], and had the feeling he should fear them, but didn't know why. Fortunately, thanks to the events in ''The Ancestor Cell'', the original timeline was restored, with the Third Doctor never being diverted to Dust. This has the effect of leaving the true version of events on the planet, involving [[I.M. Foreman]], unknown.

Interference - Book Two (The Hour of the Geek) was the second volume of Lawrence Miles' two-part multi-Doctor novel Interference. Like the first volume, it was released by BBC Books on 2 August 1999 and featured the Eighth and Third Doctors alongside their companions Sam Jones, Fitz Kreiner, and Sarah Jane Smith.

This was the final book to feature Sam Jones as a regular companion, and it includes one of the only prose-based regenerations of the Doctor.

Publisher's summary[[edit] | [edit source]]

They call it the Dead Frontier. It's as far from home as the human race ever went, the planet where mankind dumped the waste of its thousand-year empire and left its culture out in the sun to rot.

But while one Doctor faces both his past and his future on the Frontier, another finds himself on Earth in 1996, where the seeds of the empire are only just being sown. The past is meeting the present, cause is meeting effect, and the TARDIS crew is about to be caught in the crossfire.

The Third Doctor. The Eighth Doctor. Sam. Fitz. Sarah Jane Smith. Soon, one of them will be dead; one of them will belong to the enemy; and one of them will be something less than human...

For the purposes of this list, a "regeneration story" is one in which a regeneration is actually and initially depicted. For this reason The War Games is not included below, even though it is commonly thought of as a "regeneration story". It doesn't actually include a clear scene of regeneration, and the preponderance of stories in other media confirms that the Second Doctor did not regenerate at the end of it.
Additionally, immediate post-regeneration stories, like the 2005 Children in Need Special Born Again — and ones like Castrovalva, where the regeneration sequence was replayed — are not included.
v • e
Ogron stories
For the purposes of this list, an "Ogron story" is one in which one living, authentic Ogron plays a part within the confines of the story, outside of flashbacks to previous stories and cliffhangers that lead into the following story.
