The Wintertime Paradox

Brought to you by Penguin.

Twelve stunning Doctor Who stories for the long winter nights

Christmas can mean anything . . .

For Missy, it's solving Murders in 1909

For a little girl in Dublin, it's Plasmavores knocking at the door.

For Davros, it's a summons from the Doctor, who needs the mad inventor's help.

The perfect collection for the bleakest - and sometimes brightest - time of the year, these are the tales for when you're halfway out of the dark . . .

Written by popular children's author, and lifelong Doctor Who fan, Dave Rudden, author of Twelve Angels Weeping.
