The [[Dalek]] annuals were released in two groups. Three came out during the earliest stirrings of [[Dalekmania]] in the [[1960s]], and the remaining four came out in the late [[1970s]]. [[The Dalek Book|The first so-called "Dalek annual"]] actually preceded the first ''[[Doctor Who annual|''Doctor Who'' annual]]'', and was one of the very first pieces of ''[[Doctor Who]]'' merchandise. The 1960s books — published by [[Souvenir Press]] —all had different names, while the 1970s [[World Distributors]] "sequels" were all printed under the name, ''Terry Nation's Dalek Annual''. | The [[Dalek]] annuals were released in two groups.

The 1970s annuals were far more narratively integrated than the 1960s efforts. They tell the tale of the [[Anti-Dalek Force]], and have a regular "cast" that includes Space Major [[Joel Shaw]] and [[Mark Seven]], as well as some recurring ADF agents who feature in more than one story, such as [[Reb Shavron]]. | The 1970s annuals were far more narratively integrated than the 1960s efforts.
