"Alien Bodies" is an original novel written by Lawrence Miles and based on the long-running British science fiction television series "Doctor Who". It features the Eighth Doctor and Sam. This story marks the first appearance of Faction Paradox, a time travelling Gallifreyan voodoo cult. The Faction's story arc begins here, and concludes in "The Ancestor Cell". A humanoid TARDIS is featured, foreshadowing the character of Compassion.

Plot
