Scream of the Shalka (novelisation): Difference between revisions

'''Scream of the Shalka''' by [[Paul Cornell]], published by [[BBC Books]], is a 2004 novelisation of the webcast [[Scream of the Shalka (webcast)|of the same title]]. This adaptation of the story marks the only book appearance (to date) of the [[Ninth Doctor (Scream of the Shalka)|Alternate Ninth Doctor]] featured in the webcast. He was rendered non-canon by the subsequent announcement of a new ''Doctor Who'' TV series. This book is the first novelisation of an officially licensed ''Doctor Who'' story since the [[1996]] novelisation of ''[[Doctor Who (1996)|Doctor Who]]''. As of 2011 it stands as the most recent novelisation of a ''Doctor Who'' story, although novelisations based upon the spinoff series ''[[The Sarah Jane Adventures]]'' were published beginning in 2007. It is the only novelisation to date based upon a webcast.
