* The events at [[Devil's End]] in ''[[The Dæmons (TV story)|The Dæmons]]'' are mentioned as having taken place "around 1973": two years in the future, as opposed to the five years when the [[Unified Intelligence Taskforce|UNIT]]-related ''Doctor Who'' television stories were supposedly set. This was not derived from any information given in the DVD version.
* A scene opens with the aftermath of the battle in [[Devil's End]] in ''[[The Dæmons (TV story)|The Dæmons]]''. This section mentions the story took place "around 1973": two years in the future, as opposed to the five years when the [[Unified Intelligence Taskforce|UNIT]]-related ''Doctor Who'' television stories were supposedly set. This was not derived from any information given in the DVD version.
* The Master's demonic tome is shown to have been in UNIT's [[Black Archive]]. In the original film, the description of a "warehouse" with "shop window dummies" meant [[the Warehouse]] from ''[[Auton (home video)|Auton]]''.
* The novelisation ties into the contemporary ''[[The White Witch of Devil's End]]'' with chapters showing [[Olive Hawthorne]] involved with the plot. [[The Sodality]]'s future is also shown, following on from the ''Time Hunter'' novels that were written after the film came out.
* [[The Ghost (Dæmos Rising)|The Ghost]] and his time-sensitive ally are given names, Andy and Laura.
* An entire section of the book takes place showing before the events of the film start, including Andy & Laura escaping an apocalyptic 2050 and arriving in 2003 Devil's End; Cavendish stealing the tome from the Black Archive; and a section in the 26th century under the Sodality, where an attack is launched on Andy and Laura. 
* Where the film ends with [[Mastho]] departing and Kate wandering if they've won, the novel depicts Mastho appearing before the Sodality to chastise them before cutting back to the Ghost assuring Kate this will be resolved in the future.
