15th Doctor Novel

Stories are the most important thing of all because they are just about the only living thing that lasts...'

At the end of the universe, a mysterious storyteller builds a campfire to draw his audience. He has gathered tales like any minstrel of old - and his specialty is tales of the Doctor. In this book of stories both long and short, you can experience Doctor Who's adventures through the prism of folk tales and fables. Retold from unusual perspectives, 1001 Nights in Time and Space is a bubbling mix of heroes and villains, soldiers and monsters, princesses, goblins, demons, tricksters, computers, ghosts and gods from all across the universe... taking inspiration from the entire 60-plus years lifespan of Doctor Who.
