BBC Books have sent DWO the cover & details for the September release of The Dalek Project by Justin Richards and Mike Collins.
The Dalek Project
Written by: Justin Richards
Illustrated by: Mike Collins
A stunning new graphic novel, featuring the Doctor as played by Matt Smith in an exciting adventure with the Daleks.
1917. It’s the height of the Great War and Hellcombe Hall is a house full of mystery: locked doors, forbidden rooms, dustsheets covering guilty secrets, and ghostly noises frightening the servants. Most mysterious of all, the drawing room seems to open directly onto a muddy, corpse-filled trench on the Western Front…
Arriving at this stately home, the Doctor meets Lord Hellcombe, an armaments manufacturer who has a new secret weapon he believes will win the war: he calls it ‘the Dalek’. Soon, the Doctor and his new friends are in a race against time to prevent the entire Western Front from becoming part of the Dalek Project!
+ The Dalek Project is released on 6th September 2012, priced £14.99 (HB).
