Resurrection: Looking Ahead

Afternoon all!

You may (or may not) have noticed that in the Story Index section we now have all of the stories in this series listed. Now, let me do a bit of explaining as to what is going on:

After thinking long and hard and I have had a major think, and rather than splitting "Resurrection" into series, or seasons, I will be going for one big long run. The entire of the series will, at present, comprise of 16 stories of varying lengths. These 16 stories will take a good year or two (or maybe even three) to write and tell. Life is about to get busy for me and it enables me to work in my own time and also to continue the series. There will be no finale's or anything like that anymore. Just one whole series running through 16 stories. If, in the meantime, anyone else wants to contribute then I would be very grateful.

The series will be tied up at the end of the 16 stories and will lead into....who knows where?

So here is a little bit of info and covers on what is to come.


Mondas Down

This story features the return of the Cyber-Mondassians, last seen in "The Tenth Planet" (1966). It will also feature the crew of the SS Coronation as they discover the drifting Mondassian ship containing two survivors.







Prisons in the Sky

The Rock - a dead world with rocky coastlines and stormy seas and prisons that house the galaxies deadliest criminals high up in the sky.

Holly and Lilly are imprisoned for trespassing on the planet whilst the Doctor teams up with a group of rogues to try and break them out. It will be a story focusing on the relationship between Holly and Lilly as Holly tries to dig further into the mysterious girls past.




Aliens Among Us



The Doctor gathers information that a group of aliens, disguised as Humans, are hiding in a small town in the 1990's. He, Holly and Lilly must live normal lives and attempt to bring the aliens out of hiding.







The Fires that Burned Blue

The Master returns with a new face and a new agenda as the Doctor realises that wheels that he accidentally set in motion way back are about to come back and haunt him. This will be a very important story in the ongoing narrative of the series and will feature the first shift in the story arc for all the characters as it delves into where Lilly has come from and what the Doctor did before we met him in "The Dead Shall Walk Again".




Clarence

A circus arrives in town and a clown is accused of murder, but is it all as straightforward as it seems? The Doctor, Holly and Lilly must delve deeper into Uncle Joe's Circus before Clarence - or someone - strikes again.







The Edwardian Way

The TARDIS lands in 1908 where the Doctor meets an old acquaintance, Holly falls in love and Lilly investigates a number of time experiments being conducted by the mysterious Professor Sydney Rook and his daughter, Annabella Rook.

This story is partially crossed over with a short story I am currently writing which features the 7th Doctor and Ace, called "The Ghost of Gallows Inn", although you won't have to read that to enjoy "The Edwardian Way". I will be making the 7th Doctor story available to read on here as an extended prelude.

Holly Dangerfield and the Book of Darkness

The TARDIS returns Holly home, five months after she boarded the TARDIS for the first time. The Kro'Tenk are coming and the walls between this dimension and the Dark World are collapsing.

On the other side Richard Hicks fights for his life and teams up with a familiar face.





A Beautiful Life


The TARDIS is joined by a new companion who is taken on his first trip on board the TARDIS to the beautiful world of Alestii where something rotten is in the planets core.








The Spires of Jacarthia



The next stage in the Masters plan is put in motion and one of the companions faces a difficult and life changing choice. This story will see the return of the Doctor's adopted brother, Reikon, along with Reikon's nephew, Caleb and wife Celestia. These characters featured in "Darkpaths", although new readers need not read those stories as the link to the previous story featuring them will be very slight.





UNIT: X


The mysterious Roger Stark - CEO of UNIT: X - makes his appearance known in dramatic fashion as the Doctor's life is put in danger by the new and dreaded UNIT team. And what does Roger have hidden in the basement of UNIT: X HQ?






Scouting for Aliens


The TARDIS is drawn to 400 acres of private woods in Leicestershire as a Scout group find themselves lost, alone and frightened. They are being pursued by tree-dwelling aliens intent on taking each and every one of them as prisoner.







The Haunting of Mrs Webster



Roger Stark asks the Doctor to help Joy Webster - a woman whose life is being torn apart by the ghost of an old woman.

This story is based on allegedly true events (obviously not the Doctor bit) that happened to a woman I knew in my childhood. 






Dr. Who and the Men in the Moon


The TARDIS crashes on the moon where the Doctor and his friends are attacked by Moon Men - deadly monsters made of Moon dust with sharp fangs. All is almost lost until an old Human scientist, calling himself Dr. Who, along with his companions, Ian, Barbara, Susan and Jenny rescues them and offers to fly them back to Earth...in their own time machine, TARDIS!





The King of Jacarthia

In the final part of the Master Trilogy, the Doctor must fight to take down the Master's world as everything falls down around him. Terrible choices have to be made as the Master seems almost unstoppable, and when all else seems lost, can the Doctor trust any of those close to him?

Aftershock

The ripples of what the Master has done reverberate throughout time and space as the Doctor and his friends race against time to put right everything that has gone wrong. For some there is no going back, for some life will never be the same again, and for some all that is left is death...
