Doctor Who and the Daleks Omnibus, edited by Daleks creator Terry Nation, was a British omnibus published in 1976, especially for Marks and Spencer.

New contents[]
Though the novelisations take up most of the book, the Omnibus is interesting for what else is included. A piece called "The Seventh Galaxy" provided some details about the Dalek's home galaxy. Another called "On Camera" provided photography and script extracts from Genesis of the Daleks. "The Forbidden Planet" described Skaro's two moons, Omega Mysterium and Falkus. A behind-the-scenes feature called "Doctor Who and the Daleks Media History" provided what would have been, at the time of publication, one of the first complete overviews of the serials, stage plays and films in which the Daleks had appeared. "Invasion", a comic strip-cum-puzzle, was the lone piece of original fiction. The volume's new material was rounded off with a few diagrams of the anatomy of a Dalek and blueprints of a "Dalek Deep Space Cruiser".
