Note:  Following the sad passing of Chris Achilléos in December 2021, an updated paperback version was released in April 2023 featuring an unpublished Peter Capaldi illustration and contributions from Chris’ daughters, Esther and Anna, his nephew Thomas, and his wife, Natasha. The cover and ISBN remain the same so I have not listed this as a separate edition.

Cover blurb:
Kklak!: The Doctor Who Art of Chris Achilléos covers for the official Target novelisations, which began in the early ‘70s, defined a generation’s image of the Doctor and his adventures — particularly after the show disappeared from British screens in the late ‘80s.

Lavishly detailed, with psychedelic overtones and an unapologetically pulpy sensibility, these covers perfectly captured the eccentric appeal of the classic series.

Kklak!: The Doctor Who Art of Chris Achilléos collects the entirety of Achilléos’ Doctor Who artwork in chronological order, along with commentary from Achilléos himself (as well as some fans) — presenting the definitive guide to his seminal work. The book also includes a small contribution from twelfth Doctor Peter Capaldi and a foreword from Achilléos’ long-time friend and collaborator, the late Terrance Dicks.

Note:  Originally a limited edition of 400 copies, exclusively available from the Candy Jar website. An additional print run of 150 copies is being made available in early 2024 with the same extra illustration and family contributions as the newer paperback edition. Again as the cover and ISBN have not changed, I am not considering this a new edition and hence it is not listed separately here.
