2nd Paperback[]

In 1985, The Doctor Who Monster Book was released by Target.

Cover blurb[]

No back cover blurb as such — the back cover instead contains details of a mail-order promotion, allowing readers to buy posters by post from W.H. Allen (the same offer is displayed in many Target Doctor Who books of the period). The 5 posters available were:

  • A schematic of a Dalek, showing its interior
  • The well-known "exploding Dalek" artwork from the Death to the Daleks novelisation
  • Artwork titled "The World of Doctor Who", showing Peter Davison and a Dalek in front of a montage of Target novelisation covers
  • A photo of Jon Pertwee grappling with Linx the Sontaran in a still from The Time Warrior
  • Artwork of two Cybermen striding across space, taken from the cover of the 1981 edition of Doctor Who and The Cybermen (the novelisation of The Moonbase)

Notes[]

  • An overview of the many aliens and monsters the Doctor has faced in his travels. Followed by The Second Doctor Who Monster Book.
  • No text content was changed for the 2nd edition but many of the photos are different and there is no free poster included (though the back cover features a poster offer, see below). Both the 1st and 2nd editions have the same ISBN.
