The novel is notable for featuring a unique take on the effects which the Doctor's adventures have on history. In the version of [[2006]] which the characters visit in the story, it is stated that [[WOTAN]], the [[Cyberman]], and the [[Dalek]]s have accomplished somewhat successful invasions of Earth, implying that because the Doctor has yet to intervene in those events (seen in [[TV]]: ''[[The War Machines (TV story)|The War Machines]]'', ''[[The Tenth Planet (TV story)|The Tenth Planet]]'' and ''[[Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)|Remembrance of the Daleks]]'' respectively) that different outcomes came into being. This could also be seen as a clever way to explain stories set in futures which never came to pass, such as [[TV]]: ''[[The Enemy of the World (TV story)|The Enemy of the World]]'' being set in [[2018]].
