* The book contains far more detail on the [[Special Weapons Dalek]], also known (in the novelisation) as "the [[Abomination]]". In the book, its motives are explored in detail, from its inception and creation as the ultimate weapon, to the surprising fact that the firing of the weapon caused it to mutate, and become self-aware. As a result, it is closely monitored and even 'feared' by other Daleks. | * The book contains far more detail on the [[Special Weapons Dalek]], also known (in the novelisation) as "the [[Abomination]]".

* ''Remembrance of the Daleks'' is considered to be a significant novelisation by many fans, and the precursor to the [[Virgin New Adventures]]. It introduced a character called [[Kadiatu Lethbridge-Stewart (Remembrance of the Daleks)|Kadiatu Lethbridge-Stewart]], an ancestor of [[Kadiatu Lethbridge-Stewart|the character]] who later appears in the Virgin novels. It also includes flashbacks to ancient [[Gallifrey]] which introduce "[[the Other|the other]]", the mysterious third member of the [[Triumvirate]] with [[Rassilon]] and [[Omega]]. The Virgin novels would later change "the other" into "the Other" and hint at his connection to the Doctor. | * ''Remembrance of the Daleks'' is considered to be a significant novelisation by many fans, and the precursor to the [[Virgin New Adventures]].
