Doctor Who Atlas was a fully illustrated atlas of many of the most recognisable locations in the Doctor Who universe. The atlas, published by BBC Children's Books and Puffin Books on 2 September 2021,[1] had a mix of character profiles regarding many incarnations of the Doctor and their companions, short histories of various locations, and annotated maps; these often recapped a selection of television episodes, although with all new-art.
