Note: Features K-9 and Sarah Jane Smith. This was the only K-9 annual ever published — the pilot for the proposed Doctor Who spinoff series K-9 and Company had been screened the previous December, so this annual was presumably published to cash in on K-9’s raised profile and the hope that the pilot would be picked up for a full series. Of course, the latter never happened (and the annual presumably sold poorly) hence no further K-9 annuals were forthcoming. An electronic (PDF file) version of this annual was included as an extra on the K-9 Tales DVD.
Audio readings of 4 out of the 6 stories from this annual were included in the K-9 Audio Annual — namely, Powerstone, The Shroud of Azaroth, Hound of Hell and The Monster of Loch Crag. Cover blurb:
