Quick Reads is a literacy organisation which works with book publishers to provide low-cost, low-page count books in order to encourage people to read. A major focus of their outreach are adult readers who need to improve their literacy skills. BBC Books is one of the non-profit's partners. Beginning in 2006, this relationship began to produce original Doctor Who fiction.

During the David Tennant years, one Tenth Doctor Quick Reads novel was released each year, inclduing in the "transition" year of 2010. No Quick Reads was issued in 2011, but the series resumed in 2012 with the Eleventh Doctor.

The 2007 release, Made of Steel was notable for being the first piece of original fiction based upon the BBC Wales franchise to be written by Terrance Dicks, a script editor and writer for the original TV series and a prolific writer of Doctor Who prose fiction.
