Obverse Books has released the schedule for its Black Archive range, running all the way up until December 2020 – and we’re very excited!

For anyone unfamiliar with the series, The Black Archive is a range of book-length analyses of Doctor Who serials, attempting to cover every single story.

I’m personally excited to finally be able to announce that I’ll be writing The Black Archive #44 – The Pandorica Opens/ The Big Bang, based on my favourite ever Doctor Who serial. That’s due out in June 2020, the 10th anniversary (unbelievably) of the Series 5 finale.

And there are plenty of great Archives to look forward to: looking solely at 2019, we’ve got Niki Haringsma’s Love & Monsters; Jonathan Morri’s The Dalek Invasion of Earth; Listen by Dewi Small; and, from Naomi Jacobs and Thomas Rodebaugh, the first analysis of a Thirteenth Doctor tale, Kerblam! – and, of course, loads more!

Then, in 2020, there’s William Shaw’s The Rings of Akhaten; Michael Seely’s The Tenth Planet; and a two-part celebration of Doctor Who‘s 50th anniversary: The Day of the Doctor by Alasdair Stuart, and The Night of the Doctor by James Cooray Smith.

Naturally, we’ll keep you updated on all the upcoming Black Archive books. But for now, here’s the full schedule:
