The A Time To... series would have to be one of my favourites, along with the Stargazer series, and also the Voyager relaucnh, that im keeping up with. I just finished book 2 of the Second set, I can´t remember the name.

There's an old series line that's quite extensive, and a new series line which you would probably be slightly more interested in. With how popular the new series is over there, you should definitely pop over to your local bookstore's scifi section.

Yeah ive seen the new series of books, try looking in WHSmith or Waterstones, Chris.
To be honest, Doctor Who books dont seem that appealing to me, I think it is better suited to a TV show.

On the contrary! Books can achieve things that can only be limited to the imagination -- things a television (or to be fair, even movie) budget could never accomodate! Many of them are quite excellent! Check them out!

I tried reading a Dr. Who book once, but I ended up giving it up because I didn´t have a clue about the show at the time, that sort of put me off trying it.

Why? Don't be unreasonable, Ross, there are hundreds of authors putting out great Doctor Who material. If the new series books were out in the US, I'd have read them by now. But they're not.

Why wouldn't you have an open mind? You like Doctor Who, don't you?

William Shatner's ST books are good.

You just contradicted yourself. First you say William Shatner's books are good, then you say he was the reason Star Trek V was crap. Which is it?
