* Similar to the ''[[Virgin Decalogs]]'' and [[Big Finish Productions|Big Finish]] ''[[Short Trips (series)|Short Trips]]'' books before it, this anthology is built around the titular theme of myths and legends. The table of contents states which story each short story is based on.
* [[Richard Dinnick]] also wrote ''[[Underworld of the Daleks (unreleased short story)|Underworld of the Daleks]]'' for this anthology but it went unpublished. Dinnick released the full story on his website during ''[[Doctor Who: Lockdown!]]'' in 2020.<ref>[https://richarddinnick.com/2020/04/30/the-missing-bbc-books-myths-legends-story-underworld-of-the-daleks-2/ The Missing BBC Books “Myths & Legends” story: Underworld of the Daleks!]</ref>
