Publisher's Summary
The Doctor is repairing the TARDIS systems once again when it is swept up by a garbage ship roving through space, the Quetzel.
When another ship approaches and takes the Quetzel by force, the Doctor discovers that he and Sam are not the only unwitting travellers on board - there is a strangely familiar survival pod in the hold. Delani, the captain of the second ship, orders the pod to be opened. The Doctor is powerless to intervene as Davros is awakened once again.
But this is no out-and-out rescue of Davros. Delani and his crew are Thals, the sworn enemies of the Daleks. They intend to use Davros as a means to wipe out the Daleks, finally ridding the universe of the most aggressive, deadly race ever to exist. But the Doctor is still worried. For there is a signal beacon inside the pod, and even now a Dalek ship is closing in...

War of the Daleks is continuity heavy as far as Dalek history is concerned with the following Dalek stories referenced: The Daleks, Power of the Daleks, Planet of the Daleks, Genesis of the Daleks, Destiny of the Daleks, Resurrection of the Daleks, Revelation of the Daleks, Remembrance of the Daleks
Story Notes
War of the Daleks is considered by many to be non-canonical, or at least on the outskirts of established cannon as it makes numerous revisions to 'established' Dalek history.
In short every TV story from Destiny of the Daleks to Remembrance of the Daleks is revised to fit War of the Daleks' plot.
The only 'question' this book seems to answer is where the Dalek Factory Ship seen in Power of the Daleks came from.
