K-9
. This was the final book in the Missing Adventures Range.

Plot

Two factions have laid claim to the planet Barclow: humans from Metralubit, and the Chelonians. But instead of fighting, for nearly two hundred years, the two sides are the best of friends.

The Doctor, Romana and K-9 arrive to find an important election looming. K-9 begins a career in politics, Romana reunites with an old friend, and the Doctor discovers a plot to alter the war's friendly nature. And what has Galatea, leader of the beautiful Femdroids, got to do with this?

Rarity

The novel is one of a number of Virgin Doctor Who novels which sell for far in excess of their cover price, especially on online auction sites such as

Amazon.[1] This is believed to be due to high demand for the books after Virgin lost their licence to publish original Doctor Who fiction. Lungbarrow and The Dying Days are similar in this respect, as they were the two final Virgin New Adventures
to be published.

Audio adaptation

In April 2015, Big Finish released a full cast audio adaptation of the story starring Tom Baker, Lalla Ward and John Leeson.[2]
