"Brought to you by Puffin. The first collection in the Doctor Who: Icons series. The Thirteenth Doctor meets the illustrious artist Frida Kahlo in the first of three brand-new novellas starring inspiring characters from history. Some art can be deadly . . . Young Frida Kahlo is angry. Injured in a terrible accident, she lives with constant pain and worries that her dreams are unreachable. But when the TARDIS lands in Mexico City – drawn by a strange disturbance in its energy fields – Frida’s life is turned upside down. Aliens have arrived, taking over the bodies of children and killing anyone who gets in their way. With the fate of the Earth at stake, the Doctor and Frida must find a way to understand their alien invaders, and each other. The Tenth Doctor meets the constantly curious Charles Darwin in the second of three brand-new novellas starring inspiring characters from history. Some discoveries should never be made… When Charles Darwin takes a break from a long sea voyage to look for shells on the Galapagos Islands, he finds two things that really shouldn’t be there. The first is a sunbathing Doctor. The second is a fresh Silurian skull . . . When more Silurians are discovered by Darwin’s crew – alive, this time – there is pandemonium. And when the island’s volcano starts erupting, years ahead of schedule, it looks like all-out war. The Doctor has his hands full. Can he keep Charles – and his evolutionary theory – alive? The history of science is at stake. The Fifteenth Doctor meets a literary legend in the third of three brand-new novellas starring inspiring characters from history. The best stories should never be unwritten… When a strange signal echoes through time to the heart of the TARDIS, the Doctor follows it to the home of Shirley Jackson. But the strangeness deepens when they find a sinister figure sowing chaos and discord with the use of a glowing box – encouraging a crowd to murderous deeds. Catapulted back to Shirley Jackson’s own era by the TARDIS, the Doctor (with the help of the time-struck author) must discover the origins of the box, and the terrible power that it wields . . .

[German] - Schneewittchen schlägt zurück (Ungekürzt)

"Prinzessin Eve wurde seit ihrer Kindheit darauf trainiert, eines Tages gegen den Ritter anzutreten, der das Reich ihrer Mutter, Königin Regina, seit Jahrhunderten terrorisiert. Der Ritter ist ein mächtiger Zauberer, der Wünsche erfüllt. Doch seine Magie hat immer einen Preis, wie Königin Regina nur allzu gut weiß. Eves eigene magische Fähigkeit macht sie zu einer würdigen Gegnerin. Doch kurz vor Eves siebzehnten Geburtstag, vor dem entscheidenden Kampf, verhält sich Regina zunehmend seltsam: Fast jede Nacht spricht sie mit einem magischen Spiegel. Dann taucht ein Bote des Ritters auf, der Eve eine Nachricht über ihre Herkunft überbringt, die alles auf den Kopf stellt, was sie zu wissen glaubt. Um ihr Königreich zu retten, muss Eve kämpfen - aber wird sie den Mut finden, sich der Vergangenheit zu stellen?"

Doctor Who: Decades Collection 1990s, 2000s, and 2010s

"Brought to you by Puffin. A brand new audio bundle of three Doctor Who stories to celebrate the 60th anniversary. 1990s - Wannabes by Dave Rudden It's Dublin in 1994, and the Doctor and Donna have arraived at the tiny nightclub known as Headlong. Headlong is famous for precisely one thing - holding the karaoke night where four young women came together to make the biggest girl band of the 90s: the Honeybloods. Donna has convinced the Doctor to visit their first ever concert (she reckons she could have been one of them if the timelines were different) - and he has begrudgingly agreed. Naturally the band is kidnapped by a deadly pack of siren-like creatures who adapt to and feed off human adulation, usually harvested by taking the form of cultural icons. With Dublin and the world to save, Donna may get her chance to perform on the world's biggest stage . . . 2000s - The Monster in the Cupboard by Kalynn Bayron When the Doctor and Rose stumble across thirteen-year-old Lily, they both agree she needs their help. Lily thinks there are monsters in the closet, hiding under the bed. And that they've taken her mother and brother - who went missing months ago. When asked about the monster, Lily can only say it's made of immense light and power. Rose and the Doctor must find out who and what the creature is, and where it's taken Lily's family. It is a search that will take them right back to the childhood of Lily's grandmother, and another disappearance all those years ago . . . 2010s - The Angel of Redemption by Nikita Gill A poem of tragedy and beauty . . . The Weeping Angels are an ancient race of terrible power. With the ability to propel their victims backwards in time, their true form is a mystery - they turn to stone on sight. So they wander the universe, cursed never to see one another. But they see everything else: the whole course of time and space - even the journey of their deadliest enemy, the Doctor. In this extraordinary, epic poem, the Weeping Angels sing the story of the years they've battled the Doctor, and everything in between, as - like a Greek Chorus - they tell the world with their tragic tale.
