BBC Books: The Legends of River Song
Friday, 13 May 2016 - Reported by Chuck Foster
BBC Books will be releasing their latest fiction book set in the worlds of Doctor Who, The Legends Of River Song on 2nd June 2016:
The Legends of River Song
Written by Jenny T Colgan, Jacqueline Rayner, Steve Lyons, Guy Adams and Andrew Lane
Published by BBC Books in hardback on 2nd June 2016 [preorder from Amazon in United Kingdom or North America]
'Hello sweetie!'
With those words, the indominitable River Song crashed into the Doctor's life, and has stayed there ever since. Archaeologist, time-traveller, thief, and murderer, River Song has had more adventures (and got into much more trouble) than most other people in the universe. And she's written a lot of it down. Well, when you're (possibly) married to a Time Lord, it's important to keep track of what you've done and when. Especially as it may not have happened to both of you yet. Sometimes she's with the Doctor, and sometimes she's on her own. But wherever and whenever she may be, she's never far from danger ... and excitement!
From an eventful Picnic at Asgard with the Eleventh Doctor, to a solo escapade Death in New Venice, these are just a few tales from River Song's impossible life, recounted by bestselling Doctor Who writers including Jenny T Colgan and Guy Adams.
