"So Vile a Sin" is an original novel written by Ben Aaronovitch & Kate Orman and based on the long-running British science fiction television series "Doctor Who". It features the Seventh Doctor, Chris and Roz, Bernice, Jason, Kadiatu Lethbridge-Stewart. It is the conclusion of the "Psi Powers series" and the last appearance of Roz Forrester.

Background

The novel was originally announced as being written only by Aaronovitch, but due to his difficulties in completing the book — officially blamed on a hard drive crash on his computer — it was delayed and taken on by Orman to complete. Originally to have been published in November 1996, it did not eventually appear until May 1997. This made it the last of the published "New Adventures" novels featuring the Doctor, although in terms of the ongoing narrative of the series it was followed by the five books published immediately previously to it, hence being numbered as 56 of 61.

The title is taken from William Shakespeare's "Henry V", Act 2, scene iv. It is the Dauphin's line "Self-love, my liege, is not so vile a sin/As self-neglecting."
