[edit] 1977 edition

The TARDIS lands in a London of future times — a city of fear, devastation and holocaust… a city now ruled by DALEKS.

The Doctor and his companions meet a team of underground resistance workers, among the few survivors, but after an unsuccessful attack on the Dalek spaceship, they are all forced to flee the capital.

A perilous journey through England finally brings them to the secret centre of Dalek operations… and the mysterious reason for the Dalek invasion of Earth!

[edit] Novelisation

  • This novelisation is based on The Dalek Invasion of Earth.
  • The cover and information shown on the right is for the original Target novel and featured the artwork of Chris Achilleos. In the absence of an accurate photo reference, the Roboman and Dalek Saucer shown on the cover resembles (though not exactly) those from the film Daleks - Invasion Earth 2150 AD.See below for information on other UK and international editions which published with a different cover.
