The Shadows of Avalon is a BBC Books original novel written by Paul Cornell and based on the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who. It features the Eighth Doctor, Fitz, Compassion, Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart, and Romana III.

Continuity

  • Fitz's question to the Doctor at the end of the novel, and his answer about being on the run from the Time Lords in a stolen and unreliable TARDIS, is reminiscent of the last lines of The Five Doctors.
  • The novel is a partial sequel to the Virgin New Adventures novel Happy Endings.

Notes

  • This is the only original novel in the BBC Books range written by Paul Cornell.
