Doctor Who charity book gets 50th anniversary special edition



Doctor Who charity book gets 50th anniversary special edition

A charity collection of classic Doctor Who short stories and reviews first released earlier this year is now available as a 50th Anniversary Special Edition. 

FOURTH DIMENSION, by British fan Steven Miscandlon, collects short stories and reviews that were first published in various Doctor Who fan magazines in the early 90s, and also includes “The Gallifrey Incursion”, a previously unpublished novelette-length story written in 1995. The new edition – available in hardback and as an ebook – sports revamped cover art and features a brand new story written to celebrate the show’s 50th anniversary. 

Steven said: “Since it first went on sale in May, Fourth Dimension has seen some success – peaking at number three in Lulu’s sci-fi bestsellers chart – and raised money for Unite Against Cancer. As the 50th anniversary month approached, I wanted to mark the occasion by producing a special hardback edition of the book. To make this new edition a bit different, I decided to write a new story for inclusion in the collection – ‘Blood and Bones’ features Paul McGann’s Eighth Doctor, and the story also ties in directly with the post-2005 run of Doctor Who.” 

The Fourth Dimension 50th Anniversary Special Edition is available in hardback from Lulu, and in various ebook formats directly from the author. All profits from sales of the book will be donated to UK charity Unite Against Cancer, which was set up in 2012 to fund research into new cancer treatments.
