Doctor Who Short Trips is a series of themed short story anthologies of new Doctor Who fiction, featuring the Doctor in all of his first eight incarnations. They feature stories written by some of the leading names in Doctor Who, past and present, including Paul Cornell, Gareth Roberts, Christopher H. Bidmead, and Paul Magrs. Whether made of flesh and bone, or created in the deep recesses of the mind, monsters are terrible things. They come after you in the night, when you least expect it; they invade your world when all seems safe. Monsters features stories that tell of such beasts—some real, some imaginary; some alien, some homegrown.
