BBC Brilliant Books

Due to the 'Licensing Issues' for the Pannini Storybooks, these were subsequently cancelled making them a unique phenomenon to the Tenth doctor.

 

Following the cancellation of the Storybooks, BBC Books started to release an Annual Like book under the title of Brilliant Books.  These were released at the same time as the main Annuals and were aimed as more of an Episode Guide to the series in question.

 

Launched in September 2010 the Brilliant book contained a mixture of Features, Illustrated Stories

and Episode Guide. 

 

The series only lasted Two Issues and has become a unique phenomenon for the Eleventh Doctor.

 

I do not have these at present so if anyone has them scanned and are willing to share then please get in touch. Thank you.
