The Adventures of K9: Difference between revisions

'''The Adventures of K9''' was a series of four illustrated paperback storybooks for children written by [[David Martin]] and published by [[Sparrow Books]] in [[1980]]. The four books feature [[K-9]], the character Martin co-created.  

Specifically, the stories (according to the Discontinuity Guide website) feature [[K-9 Mark I]] and are supposed to take place sometime after the events of [[DW]]: ''[[The Invasion of Time]]'' when the Doctor left K-9 on [[Gallifrey]].[http://www.whoniverse.org/discontinuity/K9_1.php]  

The books include prefaces that indicate that K-9 is working on behalf of the [[Time Lord]]s (which opens the possibility that this could also be [[K-9 Mark II]], depicted in many spin-off media as eventually returning to Gallifrey with [[Romana II|Romana]] who becomes Lord President.

Although the general spelling used for the name K-9 is hyphenated, these books consistently use the unhyphenated form, K9. They also suggest that the Doctor's real name might be the [[Theta Sigma]] nickname heard in ''The Invasion of Time'' and [[DW]]: ''[[The Happiness Patrol]]''.
