Publisher's Summary

The Doctor and his travelling companion, retired army officer Alistair Lethbridge-Stewart, take a random trip in the TARDIS - and land on the planet Skaro. The Doctor helped the Thals to defeat the Daleks years ago, so he is surprised to find the Thal city under Dalek occupation. He determines to help them again, but what is the Daleks' purpose in keeping the Thals alive? Does it have anything to do with the Daleks' mythical creator, named in their teachings as Davros?

Continuity

  • The Masters of War is the sequel to Sympathy for the Devil
  • The Doctor's absence from the events of Genesis of the Daleks have meant the Daleks abandoned their creator instead of taking the chance to exterminate him; the Daleks from The Daleks are retroactively made out to be a second batch, programmed with feelings of mercy and pity to ensure loyalty. All other Dalek stories are said to be caused by the original Daleks, here called Renegade Daleks.
  • The Brigadier fought three Daleks on Earth, a reference to partial events from Day of the Daleks. The Ogrons go unmentioned.
  • The Thousand Year War and Davros' history are different to other fictions, most notably that the war was considerably shorter than a thousand years and started closer to the end. The Quotch's involvement - and the Quotch - don't seem to caused by any difference in the Doctor's timeline.
