Doctor Who: Meglos 4th Doctor Novelisation

An exciting novelisation of a classic TV story featuring the Fourth Doctor, Romana and K9. On the planet Tigella, the Savants and the Deons are irrevocably opposed on one crucial issue: the Dodecahedron, mysterious source of all their power.

To the Savants it's a miracle of science to be studied and used to benefit all. To the Deons it's a god, and not to be tampered with.

When the power source begins to fluctuate, the whole planet is threatened. Zastor, Tigella's leader, welcomes the Doctor and invites him to arbitrate; yet the Time Lord may not be all he seems...

Terrance Dicks became Script Editor of Doctor Who in 1968, co-writing Patrick Troughton’s classic final serial, The War Games, and editing the show throughout the entire Jon Pertwee era to 1974. He wrote many iconic episodes and serials for the show after, including Tom Baker's first episode as the Fourth Doctor, "Robot; Horror at Fang Rock" in 1977; "State of Decay" in 1980; and the 20th-anniversary special, "The Five Doctors" in 1983. Terrance novelized over sixty of the original Doctor Who stories for Target Books, including classics like Doctor Who and the Abominable Snowmen and Doctor Who and the Auton Invasion, inspiring a generation of children to become readers and writers. He died in August 2019, only weeks before the publication of his final Doctor Who short story, ‘Save Yourself’, in The Target Storybook.
