Doctor Who Target Collection 2024 Rogue Paperback

Available to order from www.amazon.co.uk, www.hive.co.uk, www.uk.bookshop.org and www.waterstones.com

Earth’s Regency era – a time of culture, extravagance, sumptuous balls… and aliens?

While Ruby is a popular new addition to the Duchess of Pemberton’s ball, the Doctor’s world is about to be forever rocked by a dashing visitor from space. With many party-guests facing an identity crisis like no other, it is up to the Doctor and Ruby to stop the menacing Chuldurs’ plot.

Doctor Who presents a classic tale with an alien twist in a thrilling novelisation from the episode’s scriptwriters, Kate Herron and Briony Redman. Featuring Ncuti Gatwa as the Fifteenth Doctor and Millie Gibson as Ruby Sunday.

    Is anyone else disappointed with the quality of these novelizations? My copy of Rogue in particular has numerous pages where the text is all askew and at angles.

      My copy has no issues. Take it back to where you got it (or contact online retailer) as it’s a quality issue and you should be able to get a replacement copy. Mine is perfect and friends who have it haven’t said anything about problems and I know they have read it.

    The perspective in that artwork is all over the shop!

      Have they revealed who the artist is? There are a lot of self-taught digital artists online and while there’s absolutely nothing wrong with being self-taught, the taught part is important – like learning about perspective, which is something that gets mucked up so often. Unless this episode featured tiny hedges and huge aliens?

      You do realise that this is no different to other covers? It’s not meant to be in perspective. It shows main characters in a background. The charcters are deliberately drawn larger than the background.

      The others work as a whole. This one looks wonky in the same plains, with poor separation of the plains and some iffy composition, perhaps because it had less time to be worked on than the others. It’s not dreadful, but you can’t just slap down layers anymore. Not that the greats couldn’t get it wrong – Caravaggio’s Card Players makes some people think he was badly using a camera obscura.

      I agree the perspective is dodgy but I still like the cover

      I think it’s one where it works as long as you don’t look at it for too long. There’s a lot of stuff like that.

    Love these new covers. I liked this story so I’m looking forward to this one.

    So this one is most likely a Target novelisation of the new series episode “Rogue”.

      Oh, definitely. Judging by the initials.
