* The Doctor is without a [[companion]] in this story. He is joined by [[Edward Anderson]] as a one-off companion. [[PROSE]]: ''[[Dark Horizons (novel)|Dark Horizons]]'', [[PROSE]]: ''[[Plague of the Cybermen (novel)|Plague of the Cybermen]]'' and [[PROSE]]: ''[[The Dalek Generation (novel)|The Dalek Generation]]'' also featuring the Doctor travelling solo.

* Despite featuring prominently in [[GAME]]: ''[[City of the Daleks (video game)|City of the Daleks]]'' and [[COMIC]]: ''[[The Only Good Dalek]]'', the officer-class Daleks of the [[New Dalek Paradigm]] do not appear in this story. Only the standard bronze Dalek design is featured, much like how they are the standard Daleks soldiers in [[TV]]: ''[[Asylum of the Daleks]]''. Later in [[PROSE]]: ''[[The Dalek Generation (novel)|The Dalek Generation]]'', the 2005 Daleks would also feature instead of the [[2010]] redesign, save for one brief appearance by the [[Supreme Dalek (New Dalek Paradigm)|Supreme Dalek]].
**Given that the novel was originally to feature the [[Tenth Doctor]], the Daleks featured were likely to have been yet more scattered survivors of the [[Last Great Time War|Time War]] first seen in ''[[Dalek (TV story)|Dalek]]'' and finally in ''[[Extermination of the Daleks (comic story)|Extermination of the Daleks]]''. Since the Eleventh Doctor accidentally helped [[New Dalek Paradigm|restore the Dalek race]] during his first encounter with them, it can be safely assumed that they are the bronze drones of the New Dalek Paradigm as seen in ''Asylum'' and the later ''Generation''.
* This is the first story of the revived series to feature a Black Dalek as a rank. Other Black Daleks like [[Dalek Sec]] and [[Dalek X]] were individuals and it is unlikely other Daleks shared their status.
