'''Star Books''' was an imprint of [[W.H. Allen & Co]], the then-parent of [[Target Books]]. Just before Allen ceded control of [[Target Books]] to [[Virgin Books]], they used their Star Books division to help them burn off the stocks of [[Target novelisation]]s they still had in their warehouses. Star never actually published anything with respect to ''Doctor Who'', but instead just repackaged already-existing copies of Target Books' original print runs into a sort of "pseudo-[[omnibus]]". Star marketed these literally repackaged books under the name, ''[[Doctor Who Classics (Star Books)|Doctor Who Classics]]''. These "double books" were released in [[1988 (releases)|1988]] and [[1989 (releases)|1989]]. The series contained stories from each of the first four [[Doctor]]s. | '''Star Books''' was an imprint of [[W.H. Allen & Co]], the then-parent of [[Target Books]].
