After the successful reprinting of three novelisations dating back to 1964 and 1965, the [[Target Books]] novelisations line began in earnest with '''''Doctor Who and the Auton Invasion''''', the first original Target novelisation to be published. Despite it being an adaptation of ''[[Spearhead from Space (TV story)|Spearhead from Space]]'', the opening chapter of the book also partially adapts episode 10 of the preceding story, ''[[The War Games (TV story)|The War Games]]''. With this book, Target continued the practice, introduced with ''[[Doctor Who in an Exciting Adventure with the Daleks (novelisation)|Doctor Who in an Exciting Adventure with the Daleks]]'', of using titles substantially different from the original TV serial. This practice would continue off-and-on before being mostly abandoned by the mid-[[1970s]], although the title format ''Doctor Who and the ...'' and variations therefore would continue to be used until the early [[1980s]]. | After the successful reprinting of three novelisations dating back to 1964 and 1965, the [[Target Books]] novelisations line began in earnest with '''''Doctor Who and the Auton Invasion''''', the first original Target novelisation to be published.
