Looking forward to this upcoming episode, @andwbcpodcast.bsky.social! I don't own these poetry books, but anything by James Goss is usually wonderful!
Last episode you mentioned LUX by James Goss was up for an award. That novelization was exceptional! Truly top notch, only just behind THE GIGGLE!
DR. THIRD originated by Roger Hargreaves
It was Jo Grant. They stopped to give her a lift. It was a very overloaded Bessie that set off. A very overloaded and slow Bessie. "Good grief!" cried the Doctor in exasperation.
BBC DOCTOR WHO Roger Hargreaves The Doctor just wants to get back to his lab - but some trapped friends, an unexpected snowstorm, and some icy visitors get in the way.

RETIRING (after Knight-in Armour) On days I don't want to Doctor much I worry that I shall lose my touch All that running down those corridors Thwartings of tyrants and dreadful bores Brave rescues from the Foul Monster's Lair And firm trouncing all the Demons There. Chaos never ends, oh that's the shame So yes I tire of just one more game. Sometimes when the same old fight begins I fear, just once, I'll let Evil win. And then, on second thought, perhaps I won't Because they're Monsters, and so I don't. On days like that I don't think at all That being the Doctor's so bad after all.

Three Doctor Who Target Novelizations arranged on a wooden table: Alien of London by Joseph Lidster, The Satan Pit by Matt Jones, and The Time of Angels by Jenny T Colgan.
The Doctor brings Rose home a year after she left... to find London in chaos. A spaceship has crashed into the Thames and an alien body lies in the wreckage. The Doctor, Rose and the MP for Flydale North must fight to expose the Slitheen infiltration. The Doctor and Rose travel to Krop Tor - an impossible planet orbiting a black hole, defying the laws of physics. Whispers speak of a malevolent force imprisoned since before time - something that even the Doctor fears. As seismic horrors rise and minds begin to fracture, one terrifying question remains: what if the Devil is real? An improbable call for help from River Song draws the Doctor and Amy to the wreck of the starship Byzantium. The wreck contains a deadly cargo: a Weeping Angel, determined to escape. In uneasy alliance with a squad of military clerics, the Doctor's investigation becomes a battle to survive as an army of implacable, quantum-locked killers grows ever stronger - and flesh becomes stone.
A collection of 16 recently published Target novelizations, featuring the blue & gold diamond logo, arranged on a wooden table.
The latest arrivals to the #DoctorWho #BookClub - it’s the three latest Target novelizations!
Aliens of London (& World War 3) by Joseph Lidster, (The Impossible Planet &) The Satan Pit by Matt Jones, and The Time of Angels (& Flesh and Stone) by Jenny Colgan.

THE NEW ADVENTURES THE MEDUSA EFFECT JUSTIN RICHARDS
THE MEDUSA EFFECT 'BERNICE SUMMERFIELD?' 'THAT RATHER DEPENDS ON WHO WANTS TO KNOW I'D LIKE TO OFFER YOU A JOB. I THINK YOU'LL FIND IT INTERESTING.' 'ISN'T THIS JUST A LITTLE INAPPROPRIATE? I MEAN, WE'RE AT A FUNERAL: "THAT RATHER DEPENDS ON THE JOB.' Medusa - an experimental spaceship developed by the Advanced Research Department of St Oscar's University. Missing since it was launched, presumed lost in the wars, it was a project so secret that it has never been declassified. Now, twenty years on, Medusa is coming home. After one of the investigation team dies suspiciously, Professor Bernice Summerfield is assigned to help discover what went wrong. But to do so she must solve a riddle. What is the strange link between the original crew and the team now on board the drifting ship? And why do their ghosts still haunt Medusa? THE NEW ADVENTURES JUSTIN RICHARDS is the author of the highly acclaimed New Adventure Dragons' Wrath and the fictional 'father' of the legendary Irving Braxiatel. Back in the real world, Justin spends much - but not enough - of his time as a real father and husband. His sense of humour, however, is imported from elsewhere.
We’re reviewing the Benny Summerfield novel “The Medusa Effect” by Justin Richards.
First published in April 1998 as part of the New Adventures, it is also available as an eBook.

#DoctorWho
You are welcome, Uncle Shag. I also seem to recall reading Marv Wolfman saying something along the lines of "going from Anthro, the first boy, to Kamandi, the last" in one of Dad's old Crisis articles in AMAZING HEROES or COMICS JOURNAL or COMICS IBTERVIEW... somewhere...
An excerpt from Marv Wolfman's editorial in the letter column of CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS #2: With as much enthusiasm as we could muster we began our explanations. "See, Dick," I started, "DC mythology is so confusing Sherlock Holmes couldn't make sense of it. Why don't we do a book which clarifies what DC is? We can call it THE HISTORY OF THE DC UNIVERSE." Len interjected, "We start with Anthro, the first boy, and end with Kamandi, the last. Actually, we go further, but you know what we mean." Dick smiled at us with the kind of smile that says "I knew it was bound to happen sooner or later. They've flipped out."
Found it. Marv Wolfman's editorial in the letter column of CRISIS issue 2. And according to him, Len Wein actually said it...
I can safely say I watched every one of the shows mentioned on these two ads at one time or another (except for Going Bananas. No memory of that at ALL!).
Having only read up to issue six, this is undiscovered country for me.
