The Resurrection Casket is a BBC Books original novel written by Justin Richards and based on the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who. It features the Tenth Doctor and Rose.
An abridged audio book version of The Resurrection Casket narrated by David Tennant was released in July 2006 (ISBN 1-846-07061-9.)
Like all Doctor Who spin-off media, its canonicity in relation to the television series is unclear.
[edit] Synopsis
On a shadowy planet called Starfall, where no modern technology works, the Doctor and Rose become involved in a quest for a lost treasure that belonged to Hamlek Glint — the Resurrection Casket, supposedly the key to eternal life. But the TARDIS has stopped working too...
The story is a loose science fiction adaptation of Robert Louis Stephenson's Treasure Island, with the Doctor taking the role of Dr Livesey, and Rose sharing the Jim Hawkins part with a young boy named Jimm.
