You might have seen the announcement about the upcoming release from BBC Books, but now we can give you details about the book, along with the US Release date!!
Synopsis:
As it had been foretold, the armies of the Universe gathered at Trenzalore. Only one thing stood between the planet and destruction – the Doctor. For nine hundred years, he defended the planet, and the tiny town of Christmas, against the forces that would destroy it.
He never knew how long he could keep the peace. He never knew what creatures would emerge from the snowy night to threaten him next. He knew only that at the end he would die on Trenzalore.
Some of what happened during those terrible years is well documented. But most of it remains shrouded in mystery and darkness.
Until now.
This is a glimpse of just some of the terrors the people faced, the monstrous threats the Doctor defeated. These are the tales of the monsters who found themselves afraid – and of the one man who was not.
TALES OF TRENZALORE is now available for pre-order across all major ebook retailers- Amazon, Nook, Kobo, Google Play and Apple iBooks. It will be released on February 27th, and priced at $3.99.
