The Guide also includes behind the scenes secrets of how the monsters were created, as well as design drawings and images. Find out how the Cybermen were designed over the years, and how Davros was resurrected to lead his Daleks once again. Discover the computer magic that made the Beast possible, and the make-up wizardry that created the Weeping Angels. learn how many incarnations of the Master the Doctor has encountered, and which other misguided Time Lords he has defeated... Lavishly illustrated with photos and artwork throughout, The Ultimate Monster Guide is essential reading for all travellers in time and space!

This book will be released on the eighth of October and go on sale at an RRP of £14.99. It will consist of three hundred and fifty two pages and at the moment there are only plans to release it as a hardback.
