With the debut of the first female Doctor now mere days away, the DWCA Book Club is taking a look back at four significant women from the Doctor’s many lives, showcased in the short story anthology ‘The Day She Saved the Doctor’.

The Doctor’s companion: A person who explores time and space with the Doctor, fights enemies with the Doctor, and often has to save the Doctor’s life.

If it wasn’t for the companions, the Doctor probably wouldn’t have made it out of so many scrapes. To celebrate the formidable women who have travelled in the TARDIS, dive into four new adventures with the Doctor, starring Rose, Sarah Jane, Clara and Bill.

Written by Jenny Colgan, Jacqueline Rayner, Dorothy Koomson and Susan Calman, these stories are the perfect way to celebrate the Doctor’s fantastic female heroines, for fans of all ages.

Available from all good bookshops, The Day She Saved the Doctor will be discussed at the DWCA Book Club meeting on Friday 7 December. You can also comment on our Facebook page if you can’t make the event.
