The Faction Paradox Protocols was an audio series written by Lawrence Miles and produced by BBV Productions between 2001 and 2004.
They centred on the adventures of Cousin Justine and Cousin Eliza of Faction Paradox in their battles with Lolita. All three characters originated in previous stories of Miles's: Justine in Alien Bodies, Eliza (as "Christine Summerfield") in Dead Romance, and Lolita in Toy Story. The series also featured other returning characters, including the Sontarans, the Peking Homunculi, Compassion, and Sabbath Dei. The plays were divided into three pairs, each with a consistent setting.

Notes[[edit] | [edit source]]
- The series plot was foreshadowed by some entries in The Book of the War, such as "Mujun: The Ghost Kingdom" and "Morlock".
- Every two-part story was meant to include "something like a 'Doctor Who' monster".[1]
- Had the series continued, Lawrence Miles planned for the two Sabbaths (Sabbath Dei and Godfather Sabbath) to meet.[2] Miles had fifty volumes planned, including encounters with Sutekh and spiders like the Eight Legs of Metebelis III. Some of these were later adapted into The True History of Faction Paradox.[1]
