Missing Adventures novels

The Missing Adventures (or MAs) were a monthly series of Doctor Who novels from Virgin Publishing, featuring past Doctors and companions — original stories, never seen on TV. The first MA appeared in July 1994, and they were published on a monthly basis until May 1997, when Virgin’s licence to publish Doctor Who fiction expired.

The MAs mostly starred one of the first six Doctors (the Seventh Doctor featured in the New Adventures instead), alongside established television companions. There were even occasional appearances from old enemies — the Cybermen, Sontarans, Yeti, Ice Warriors, Silurians, Ogrons and the Master all featured in various books.

In total, 33 Missing Adventures were published before Virgin lost the rights to publish Doctor Who fiction in 1997. The 2021 book The Who Adventures covers the history of this novel range, as well as Virgin’s other Doctor Who fiction output of the 1990s.

Note that a handful of MAs have been dramatised by Big Finish as part of their Big Finish novel adaptations range.
