The Code Of The Krillitanes cover & details

September 4th, 2009

code_of_the_krillitanesBBC Books have released the cover and details for their upcoming Doctor Who Quick Reads release, The Code of the Krillitanes by Justin Richards.

As the title suggests, the Tenth Doctor will cross paths with the Krillitanes, introduced in the Series 2 adventure, School Reunion, in the novella, which will be available to buy from next year, but can eating a bag of crisps really make you more clever..?

Well, the company that makes the crisps says so, and they seem to be right. But the Doctor is worried. Who would want to make people more brainy? And why?

With just his faithful sonic screwdriver and a supermarket trolley full of crisps, the Time Lord sets out to find the truth. The answer is scary - the Krillitanes are back on Earth, and everyone is at risk!

Last time they took over a school, but this time they have hijacked the Internet. And whatever they are up to, it’s big and it’s nasty…

Only the Doctor can stop them - if he isn’t already too late…

The Code Of The Krillitanes will be released on 4th March 2010, at the mere RRP price of £1.99.

    I wish they’d called it “Krillitane Cocktail Flavour” or “Cheese and Krillitane Crisps” or “A Packet of Salt and Krillitane” or something. But still, “The Code of the Krillitanes” is fine. Hope it’s better than “The Sontaran Games” (just my opinion there - please don’t hate me for it, but I thought that was the least impressive of the quick reads so far).

    So BBC books are at it again! Not content with pushing another 3 Martha books on us halfway through Donna’s time, now we have a 10th Doctor book when the 11th Doctor would have arrived. Brilliant though, David Tennant is, his time is up at the end of the year. They are obsessed!

    Nah, just takes a while to write a book. I’m still writing my own version of the series 3 finale, though admittedly I’m not selling that! And the writers haven’t seen the Eleventh Doctor any more than we have, or any more than the writers of those 3 Martha books had seen all that much of Donna. They might not have even known who would be the next companion when they started writing.

    Still, it does seem to me that there are about a thousand more Martha books than there are Rose ones, which is a bit odd. But hey, they’re still Doctor Who books!
