Doctor Who-The Ark (Doctor Who Library) door Paul Erickson
The first of what would become an occasional theme in Doctor who (mind, after forty odd years, totally new stories are a bit rare), sees the Doctor and his companions find the remnants of Humanity and their Monoid servants escaping the destruction of Earth.
