This is a work of non-fiction.
Unlike other fictional universes, the Doctor Who universe is created solely by fiction. To us, this is not a valid source. Information from this source can only be used in "behind the scenes" sections, or on pages about real world topics.
The Daemons was the sixth in Titan Books' releases of serial scripts. As of August 2017[update], it remains the only Third Doctor script to be made available commercially.
Unlike the cases of the television story and the novelisation, there was no attempt to use the letter æ in the title of this publication.
