The Doctor is counting on YOU to help win a nerve-wracking game of trust, treachery, and terror in
MISSION TO VENUS

Traveling in the Tardis, you and the Doctor materialize with a crash in a most unusual place: the belly of an in-flight spaceship. More eerie are the tall glass jars you find there, filled with jelly-like plants that desperately want out… but why?

While the Doctor ponders that question, you meet the crew - a suspicious, vicious, and mutinous lot. Will they reveal the plants' true purpose and the ship's destination? But that may not matter after all - the spaceship has been struck by an enormous meteorite and now you're flying out of control on a collision course with Venus!

There is precious little time for you and the Doctor, and perhaps everyone else. It will be a true test of your ingenuity to avoid becoming galactic statistics as you
FIND YOUR FATE ™

I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
