City at World's End is a BBC Books original novel written by Christopher Bulis and based on the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who. It features the First Doctor, Barbara, Ian, and Susan.

An earlier novel with the same title, written by Golden Age U.S. science-fiction writer Edmond Hamilton, was first published in 1951 and republished in mass paperback in 1957. Hamilton's novel, which inspired Robert A. Heinlein's survivalist novel "Farnham's Freehold", begins when the air burst of a super-atomic bomb catapults a U.S. midwestern community of 50,000 residents, called Middletown, into the remote future.
