Still reeling from his encounter with the Cybermen, the First Doctor stumbles through the bitter Antarctic wind, resisting the approaching regeneration with all his strength. But as he fights his way through the snowdrifts, he comes across the familiar shape of a blue police box, and a mysterious figure who introduces himself as the Doctor. Thrown together at their most vulnerable moments, the two Doctors must discover why the snowflakes are suspended in the sky, why a First World War Captain has been lifted from his time stream moments before his death, and who is the mysterious Glass Woman who knows their true name. The Doctor is reunited with Bill, but is she all she seems? And can he hold out against the coming regeneration? Review: good novelisation - This is a novelisation of the Doctor Who Christmas special from 2017, which was Peter Capaldi's final episode at the end of which regenerated into his first female incarnation played by Jodie Whittaker. My interest in the TV show had ebbed considerably during the Capaldi era and I had considered giving up on it before his last season, but I found that season an improvement and this was a good special to end his era. The Doctor encounters his first incarnation in the snows of Antarctica, at the very end of his own life after defeating the Cybermen for the first time in the story The Tenth Planet. They are taken out of time by a mysterious glass woman and encounter a First World War British army captain taken from the trenches just at the moment of his death. The glass entity is taking people from the point of their deaths, and recording their memories before returning them to their fates. The Doctor's former companion Bill Potts, whom he believes to be dead, is also present, but the Time Lord is not sure she is the real deal. The Doctors grapple with the dilemma over not being able to save the Captain (whose surname turns out to be Lethbridge-Stewart), which they resolve by rolling time forward to the Christmas Truce of 1914, thus saving his life. The story is good and satisfying, though some of the dialogue is banal and there are perhaps too many continuity references (e.g. the Doctor owning a VHS recording of the Daleks' Master Plan!). The depiction of the 1914 Christmas Truce owes somewhat more to myth than historical reality, but this is a suitably heartwarming conclusion to a Christmas episode. Review: An excellent read - Paul Cornell does a terrific job with this book. The twelfth Doctor gets the send off he deserves, and it's a great pleasure to read. While there is a good plot - escaping from the Glass Woman, saving the captain - this is really a character-driven book, for us to do t the first and twelfth doctors, especially now they interact with each other. But this isn't just for.fans, delighted to see their favourite characters meet; this is a genuinely well-written book, and anyone would enjoy it. This was an excellent episode and Paul Cornell has really done it justice. ## Features - New Store Stock ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 277,072 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 256 in Doctor Who 1,121 in Humorous Science Fiction (Books) 1,288 in Film & Television Tie-In | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 380 Reviews | ## Images ![Doctor Who: Twice Upon a Time (Target Collection) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91TjO68wjGL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ good novelisation *by J***R on 31 December 2020* This is a novelisation of the Doctor Who Christmas special from 2017, which was Peter Capaldi's final episode at the end of which regenerated into his first female incarnation played by Jodie Whittaker.

Like the other books set in the Moffat era this one is not afraid to get into the Doctor's head. Given that there are multiple Doctors in the story, this is a welcome decision. A great deal of effort is put into characterizing the Doctors in this story and their motivations, as well as explaining some of the more unfortunate characterizations from the episode itself. I think the First Doctor comes across much better in this book than he did in the televised episode itself. In terms of the story, if you've watched the episode you know what you're getting and there are no real deviations or edits that change the narrative. A solid and respectful adaptation. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ma/products/61247086-doctor-who-twice-upon-a-time-target-collection](https://www.desertcart.ma/products/61247086-doctor-who-twice-upon-a-time-target-collection) --- *Product available on Desertcart Morocco* *Store origin: MA* *Last updated: 2026-09-14*
