The Eighth Doctor has featured in many novels since his debut in first appearance in Doctor Who in 1996.
Virgin Books, which began publishing its New Adventures novel series in 1991, kept the license for publishing Doctor Who novels for a year after the Eighth Doctor's debut. Though only The Dying Days featured the Eighth Doctor in any substantial role, he did have brief cameos in some earlier novels, all published after the TV film.
BBC Books released a novelisation of the Eighth Doctor's debut story, Doctor Who, just two days after the story's first airing.
BBC Books began the Eighth Doctor Adventures line of novels in 1997, which continued until after the debut of the BBC Wales Doctor Who series in 2005.
