"The Highest Science" is an original novel written by Gareth Roberts and based on the long-running British science fiction television series "Doctor Who". It features the Seventh Doctor and Bernice and the first appearance of the recurring monsters, the Chelonians. A prelude to the novel, also penned by Roberts, appeared in "Doctor Who Magazine" #196.

Chelonians

This novel sees the first appearance of the Chelonians, a race of cybernetic humanoid tortoises who appeared subsequently in other spin-off novels. The Chelonians are war-like, hermaphroditic and lay eggs. They have cybernetic enhanments that include X-ray vision and improved hearing, but this advanced state of technology often causes them to consider human-beings as a form of parasite to be removed.
