The number nine is a bit of a cheat really. It's actually the second truly original novel. You get to nine by including reissues of six Target novelisations, the 2012 Shada novelisation and then The Wheel of Ice.

But that's super tenuous. So I've changed all four of the novels in that not-quite-series so that it avoids that obscure way of counting.

If you're interested, the "nine" came from a slight confusion of a statement made by the Editorial Director of BBC Books back in 2011, as reported by doctorwhonews.net at http://www.doctorwhonews.net/2011/07/dwn210711121508-bbc-books-harvest-of.html

What seems to have happened is that someone misread that statement and thought that all the books the Editorial Director was talking about were original, when in fact he was saying the "all-original" books started after Shada — what we would come to know as The Wheel of Ice.
