Puzzle Book
Unlike other fictional universes, the Doctor Who universe is created solely by fiction. To us, this is not a valid source. Information from this source can only be used in "behind the scenes" sections, or on pages about real world topics.
The Puzzle Book was published by Magnet Books, the paperback division of Methuen Children's Books.
Publisher's summary[[edit] | [edit source]]
Pit your wits against the Doctor and his assistant, Peri, in this space-age super-quiz. They are out to puzzle you with inter-planetary posers, mindbenders, brainteasers and mysteries.
So switch on — and all systems go!
This is the fifth Dr Who Quiz Book by Michael Holt who has written over 100 books, mostly for children. He has also appeared on his own "Mathemagical" show on BBC Television.
Subject matter[[edit] | [edit source]]
- A series of self-contained puzzles each with a prose narration and featuring the Doctor and Peri (and for some K9 !)
Notable features[[edit] | [edit source]]
- As did previous titles from Magnet Books, this title featured the current Doctor on the cover. This time around, after a space of two years, it was the Sixth Doctor, Colin Baker. This is actually one of the only books published during Baker's tenure to actually show his face (the Target novelisations do not).
- Illustrations were provided by Roger Wade Walker.
