The Panini 'Age of Chaos' collected edition was given to me by Santa. Nice new cover and good to see Cuddly Colin's comic strip again after, blimey, more years than I had realised!

Nice. My mission to complete the set continues. Four books added so far this year with another two in the post currently.

Turlough and the Earthlink Dilemma is a much bigger book than I was expecting it to be.

I wonder if there's a loophole here that means Nigel Robinson's version of An Unearthly Child could come out this way. Also, if we're doing this, they need to get Stephen Gallagher on board and print his expanded version of Warriors' Gate.

Evil's good. And expensive.
OOOOO, how about a reprint of Evil & Power with proper Target covers?

Evil's good. And expensive. OOOOO, how about a reprint of Evil &Power with proper Target covers? That would certainly help bring the price of the originals down. Those Target articles in DWM last year had quite an effect on the price of the books. Although there was a sudden rush of them onto eBay as a result, the prices skyrocketed. When I was looking for Evil a few years back it went for £30 but it's easily double that now.

Good lord, that sounds like a self-inflicted true friending.
I'm reading Turlough and the Earthlink Dilemma but am getting annoyed by Tony Attwood's need to make every character and place name completely unpronounceable.

The quest continues... Time and the Rani finally added to the collection, along with another Silver Nemesis to replace a substandard copy. Taken ages to get Time at a decent price but it's great to see all the McCoy stories lined up. Just Evil to go for a full set of TV stories. I thought I'd have that by now but I keep forgetting when auctions finish.

I'm reading Turlough and the Earthlink Dilemma but am getting annoyed by Tony Attwood's need to make every character and place name completely unpronounceable. Oh I see. I see what you did, Mr Attwood. That took far too long to click. His unpronounceable character and place names are all anagrams and words spelt backwards. The original Clan leaders Ykstort I and Nilatis IV? The big nasty who usurps the clan rule and causes Turlough to be exiled to Earth? Rehctaht. Amazing how some provinces of Trion are called Noved and Nodevelc. Oh good lord. I was really enjoying this story, but that's put me on edge for any new places or characters that turn up.

And now... a very nice, pretty much minty new copy of Paradise of Death added to the Target shelf.
Nearly there. Two to go.

Evil? Yes. Yes, I WILL accept that!
Now only Harry Sullivan's War stands between me and a complete collection of Target Doctor Who Novels.
The imbecile.

Not a complete Target books collection though. You still have the Automan novelisation to get.

Yeah. No thanks.
I will probably have to plug the gaps on my Target non-fiction Who shelf though. Every Target Who book would be a nice collection.
