Hi, all, It's that time again. That first quarter of the year. Time enough for another update on Divergent Wordsmiths. Our current productions and what to expect from us coming up. First of all, I want to say a massive thank you to everyone who has been reading Doctor Who - The Alchemists of Fear. It is appears, by all accounts, to be the first of its kind. The first time that Frobisher, our fun-loving penguin shape-shifter, has encountered the death-dealing Daleks. See, the Sixth Doctor, Peri Brown and Frobisher uncover the mystery of the despatch box. A briefcase with the power to command or destroy the population of an entire world. From the crowning gold of the Corporate Cluster to the twisted heart of Dalek Command Central, read this standalone tale inspired by the twists and turns of Doctor Who's most imaginative eras. Face the Psyche Dalek! A terrifying Skarosian mutation with power over your mind. Read the Sixth Doctor, at his witty and resourceful best. Read Peri, at her most courageous. And read Frobisher with all the charm you've come to expect over our previous expeditions with the character in the Novels range. Tune in for our third episode, 16 May 2024, and 8 June 2024 for the final instalment on Colin Baker's birthday! This is an adventure in Time and Space you don't want to miss! The Alchemists of Fear was developed in between the massive saga of Doctor Who - A Sparkle of Doctors. After a six-year tenure to nearly rival Tom Baker's time in the role of the Doctor on television(!), it was our fond farewell to the Anthologies range. We had everything. From the wily white-haired old trickster, with youth and wisdom. To the blonde gadgeteer facing a quiet reckoning, alone but undefeated. To the Valeyard himself, in his cruel shadow of Time. With over twenty stories, in no less than three volumes, there's something for everyone with A Sparkle of Doctors. On that subject, we do have something else in the pipeline for a late 2024/early 2025. An Unbound Doctor. Due to extenuating real-world pressures, we cannot give a definitive date, as yet, but production continues surely and steadily. The Sixth Doctor, Peri Brown and Frobisher will also feature in Doctor Who - The Sunfire Chronicles. An upcoming short story collection from Bradley's Basement (writer Tim Bradley of many a Divergent Wordsmiths tale), set to debut sometime in 2024. Doctor Who may be in the calm before the storm on streaming, but things are far from dull here at Divergent Wordsmiths. Read on, Wordsmiths, discover the machinations of The Alchemists of Fear, and thank you for your time. Best wishes,
Alan Camlann Publisher for Divergent Wordsmiths |
