Full Circle: The Doctor discovers the TARDIS has fallen into
E-Space and landed on the planet Alzarius. Its only inhabitants live on a vast,
dilapidated spaceship which they have been attempting to repair for generations
in order to return to their home planet. But Mistfall, a legendary time of
terror, is coming again to Alzarius, and an eerie menace is rising out of the
misty marshes. The Doctor and Romana must solve the riddle of the strange
Marshmen if they are to have any chance of returning to their own universe.
State of Decay: Searching for a way out of E-Space, the Doctor
and Romana, joined by a young stowaway, land on an Earth-like planet. Here the
people live in fear of 'the Three who Rule'; cruel lords who live in a high
tower overlooking their village. Suppressing all learning to keep their subjects
ignorant and helpless, what chilling secret are these ruthless monarchs
concealing? An ancient evil is rising once again and only the Doctor and Romana
can destroy it.
Warriors’ Gate: A strange creature forces its way into the
TARDIS steering them to a white void occupied only by the ruins of an old
building and a spaceship. This empty space is a gateway to the past and future
and the creature responsible for taking them there is Biroc, a Tharil, an
enslaved race. The gateway offers the only exit out of E-Sapce, but the void is
contracting. Are the Doctor and his friends fated to spend eternity in E-Space?
And what final shock revelation awaits the Doctor?
