* While no novel in particular served as an anniversary special, the 30th anniversary logo was included on the back cover of ''[[Lucifer Rising (novel)|Lucifer Rising]]'', ''[[Birthright (novel)|Birthright]]'', ''[[Iceberg (novel)|Iceberg]]'', ''[[Blood Heat (novel)|Blood Heat]]'', ''[[The Dimension Riders (novel)|The Dimension Riders]]'', ''[[The Left-Handed Hummingbird (novel)|The Left-Handed Hummingbird]]'', ''[[Conundrum (novel)|Conundrum]]'', and ''[[No Future (novel)|No Future]]''. | |||
** The logo was absent on ''[[White Darkness (novel)|White Darkness]]'' and ''[[Shadowmind (novel)|Shadowmind]]'' despite being published between ''Lucifer Rising'' and ''Birthright''. | |||
* ''[[So Vile a Sin (novel)|So Vile a Sin]]'' was the final New Adventures novel to be published featuring the Doctor, but it was published out of narrative sequence due to delays preventing its completion. The death of a major character in that book was meant to be a surprise, but because of the production delay this was no longer possible, and the novel was adapted accordingly: its prologue began with the funeral for the character, and the event was made an intrinsic part of the narrative, rather than a shock conclusion. | * ''[[So Vile a Sin (novel)|So Vile a Sin]]'' was the final New Adventures novel to be published featuring the Doctor, but it was published out of narrative sequence due to delays preventing its completion.

* Following the broadcast of the [[1996 (releases)|1996]] [[Doctor Who (TV story)|TV movie]], [[BBC Books]] took over the license for publishing original ''Doctor Who'' fiction, but there was an overlap of more than a year to allow Virgin to publish its contracted novels. As a result, the book line changed its branding, the ''Doctor Who'' logo on the front cover and spine removed beginning with the publication of ''[[Eternity Weeps (novel)|Eternity Weeps]]''. | * Following the broadcast of the [[1996 (releases)|1996]] [[Doctor Who (TV story)|TV movie]], [[BBC Books]] took over the license for publishing original ''Doctor Who'' fiction, but there was an overlap of more than a year to allow Virgin to publish its contracted novels.
