This book adapts ''[[Invasion of the Bane (TV story)|Invasion of the Bane]]'', the inaugural episode of ''[[The Sarah Jane Adventures]]''. While it was published simultaneously with the novelisations of ''[[Revenge of the Slitheen (novelisation)|Revenge of the Slitheen]]'', ''[[Eye of the Gorgon (novelisation)|Eye of the Gorgon]]'' and ''[[Warriors of Kudlak (novelisation)|Warriors of Kudlak]]'', it is listed first as it is based upon the pilot episode.


This marks the first novelisation of a ''[[Doctor Who]]''-related television production since the 1996 release of ''[[Doctor Who - The Novel of the Film]]'' (based upon ''[[Doctor Who (TV story)|Doctor Who]]''). It is the first adaptation of a "regular" episode/serial since ''[[The Evil of the Daleks (novelisation)|The Evil of the Daleks]]'' in 1994. By writing this inaugural book, original-series script editor [[Terrance Dicks]], who had recently returned to the world of ''Doctor Who'' fiction with the 2007 release ''[[Made of Steel (novel)|Made of Steel]]'' returned to the world of episode adaptations; it is his first television novelisation since his adaptation of ''[[The Space Pirates (novelisation)|The Space Pirates]]'' was published in 1990, prior to which he had written the majority of original-series literary adaptations.
