* ''The Monsters Inside'' really takes UpToEleven the NightmareFuel of having Slitheen be anyone-they don't even need to be fat, or have a lot of gas. Even the people you trust could be alien monsters who killed someone and stole their skin. And they ''love'' hunting...

** Even worse in Tennant's run is the audiobook ''Dead Air'' which is recorded and staged to make it seem like a genuine BBC recording which has been recovered from a sunken ship, being played "for the very first time" on live radio - the enemy is a sentient weapon, a creature made entire out of SOUND (not to mention a Time Lord creation) that infects and eats everything that makes a noise, and everything that hears it. All throughout the book (which is recorded at an ever so slightly ''wrong'' pitch so Tennant's voice sounds just a little ''off'' the whole time) we're treated to the spectacle of people being devoured by this machine, stripped to mere soundwaves, their identities stolen by the weapon. The audiobook ends with only the Doctor still alive, everything else having been destroyed, and with him telling TheVirus that by recording the very audiobook you're not listening to, he has trapped the weapon inside it, where it will be stuck forever... Unless someone else listens to it. [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou Well guess who's listening to it right at that moment?]]

Added DiffLines:
* Similar to Creator/BigFinish, some of the ExpandedUniverse novels and audiobooks have their moments. The latter includes Creator/DavidTennant's seriously creepy voice for the monster in ''Day of the Troll'': "Come under the bridge..."
** To emphasize, Tennant somehow manages to speak the voice of the Troll whilst INHALING.

** In ''The Resurrection Casket'' there is a cyborg girl named Silver Sally whose entire left side is made of clunky machinery that runs off steam in order to keep her alive. Later we find out that Sally is actually "Salvo," an assassin robot who was damaged, and the metal machinery is her real body. She grafted on the human skin and organs in order to keep the robotic parts running, not the other way around.
* ''Winner Takes All'' is a story about giant porcupine-like aliens called Quevvils recruiting humans to fight their war for them. They're fighting a war against giant praying mantises? You know, those insects that will rip each other's heads off at a moment's notice? A man called Darren ends up beheaded. Granted, he is a {{Jerkass}}, but it's horrible. And then there's the scene when the Quevvils make a man's brain melt, and we get a graphic description of him screaming in pain and then the brain juice coming out of his ear. It's like the books are written because they can't be allowed on television!
