In Print
A novelisation of this serial, written by Philip Hinchcliffe, was published by Target Books in 1980. This is the only one of Hinchcliffe's three novelisations that did not come from his own period working on the programme.
The artwork on the novelisation had originally been prepared for an aborted adaptation of The Edge of Destruction. Incoming Doctor Who producer John Nathan-Turner was unhappy with the grey colour of the TARDIS and the red colour of the light on top. Although he requested that the artwork be amended appropriately, his suggestions were not acted upon.
