Note:  Two other “missing episode” novelisations were also published: The Nightmare Fair and Mission to Magnus. Also released as an audio adaptation by Big Finish in 2019. An audio reading of this book had previously been released in March 2010 (read by Nicola Bryant) as a talking book for the blind, available exclusively to the registered blind through the RNIB (Royal National Institute for the Blind). As this was not available for sale for the general public, this reading is not listed on this site.
