Warriors of Kudlak (novelisation)
Warriors of Kudlak was a novelisation based on the 2007 television story Warriors of Kudlak. It was published simultaneously with the novelisations of Invasion of the Bane, Revenge of the Slitheen, and Eye of the Gorgon, and was thus tied with those three books as the first novelisation of a Doctor Who-related television production since the 1996 release of The Novel of the Film.
