Notes

  • The first Missing Adventure Goth Opera was a sequel (and also prequel, from the Doctor's point of view) to the New Adventure novel Blood Harvest. This was an obvious ploy to get readers of the New Adventures books to buy both books.
  • Downtime novelised the direct-to-video story of the same name. It did not featured the Doctor prominently but did feature a cameo by one of his future incarnations.
  • Who Killed Kennedy was not really a Missing Adventure, but listed here for the sake of convenience. Co-credited with its fictional protagonist, James Stevens, the book took the form of a mock "nonfiction exposé" of UNIT and its activities. It re-visited the events of the Third Doctor's UNIT Era from Stevens' perspective and gave an Earth-bound view of events, with the Doctor put in short appearances in various incarnations. It came out in the same month as The Eye of the Giant.
