This Book: Main l Author
The Eye of the Tyger by Paul McAuley
Foreword by Neil Gaiman
Deluxe Edition Frontispiece by Jim Burns

Inhabiting a colony spaceship in the thirty second century are members of a religious cult which left Earth to find a world of their own. Their leader, Seraph, has downloaded his mind into the ship's computers, but now he has gone silent, enticed and serenaded by a siren song coming from inside a black hole.

Trapped in orbit around the void, Seraph's followers are confused by his silence, and when the Doctor arrives, he finds a world on the brink of chaos.

The limited quantity 'special' edition of Eye of the Tyger

The book was available in three superb editions: a standard hardback with cloth-effect cover and foil-stamped logo and title, a signed and numbered limited edition deluxe hardback; and a limited quantity 'special' edition.

All editions featured a special foreword written by Neil Gaiman, the deluxe and 'special' editions also included a specially commissioned full colour frontispiece illustration by Jim Burns.

All copies of the limited edition deluxe version and 'special' edition were individually signed by the author, frontispiece artist and foreword writer.

The 'special' edition also featured the following:

  • A special embossed 40th anniversary slipcase
  • An additional signature sheet originally signed by 8th Doctor Paul McGann
  • Additional full colour art plates by three artists whose work in the field of Doctor Who has been particularly influential: Walter Howarth, who painted the cover and internal art for many of the World Distributors Annuals in the sixties; Andrew Skilleter, whose work for the Target range of novelisations and on numerous calendars and other items was evident in the seventies and eighties; and Fred Gambino, whose photo-realistic covers for several of Virgin's New Adventures and Bernice Summerfield novels were widely acclaimed in the nineties.
  • The three artists will also sign the edition.

The special edition of Eye of the Tyger was a strictly limited edition, with only 40 numbered copies being made available for sale - one for every year that the Doctor has been adventuring in the TARDIS.

Eye of the Tyger was published on the 20th of November 2003
