* The reference in ''[[The Gallifrey Chronicles]]'' to there being 11 Harry Potter novels can be seen as an anachronism (written in 2005, the author may have been unaware Rowling only planned seven books). However, Rowling has herself made comments since the publication of ''The Deathly Hallows'' that she hasn't dismissed the possibility of writing another Potter novel in the future; perhaps in the Who universe she did. The reference to the last book in ''[[The Shakespeare Code]]'' does not settle the issue, as the book is never actually referred to by name, so the Doctor could just as easily be referring to Book 11. | * The reference in ''[[The Gallifrey Chronicles]]'' to there being 11 Harry Potter novels can be seen as an anachronism (written in 2005, two years before the publication of ''Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,'' the author may have been unaware Rowling only planned seven books).
