Beyond the Sun is a novel by Matt Jones featuring the fictional archaeologist Bernice Summerfield, his second for the Virgin New Adventures. The New Adventures were a spin-off from the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who. The book is, in part, a coming-of-age story for the character of Emile as he comes to terms with his sexuality. Emile would later re-appear in subsequent New Adventures.
Bernice Summerfield takes her two students Emile and Tameka on a field trip, but when her ex-husband Jason turns up, they all become embroiled with the dangerous super-weapon of a lost civilisation.
In 1998, Beyond the Sun was adapted by its author for Big Finish Productions into an audio drama starring Lisa Bowerman as Bernice. The audio drama also features actor Anneke Wills, better known for playing Polly and Sophie Aldred who played Ace, both in the Doctor Who television series.
