Quick Reads: Difference between revisions

'''Quick Reads''' is a sub-series of the [[BBC Books]] line of original ''Doctor Who'' novels, published at the rate of one per year.

The Quick Reads books were launched in [[2006]] as an effort by BBC Books, in conjunction with other partners, to promote reading. Although the cover design is the same as that of the full-length ''Doctor Who'' novels that have been published since [[2005]], the Quick Reads differ in that they are exclusively published in paperback at a lower cover price than the hardcovers, and they have a much lower page count, which puts them into the category of novellas (even though in some cases the page count actually exceeds that of many [[Target novelisation]]s, which are considered novels).

The [[2007]] release, ''[[Made of Steel]]'' was notable for being the first piece of original fiction based upon the revived franchise to be written by [[Terrance Dicks]], a script editor and writer for the original TV series and a prolific writer of ''Doctor Who'' fiction and novelisations since the 1970s.

The first Quick Reads featuring the [[Eleventh Doctor]], ''Magic of the Angels'', will be released in 2012.[http://www.quickreads.org.uk/content/doctor-who-magic-angels]
