* The crew of the ''[[Mary Celeste]]'' are all named. Additionally, while the Daleks scare the whole crew off the ship in the televised version, here one crew member is killed. Ian and Barbara discuss the matter further, wondering if the death of the crew was their fault since they led the Daleks there or if it was an [[Fixed point|inevitable fact of history]]. Ian notes that Barbara once tried to change the history of the [[Aztec]]s but failed. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Aztecs (TV story)|The Aztecs]]'') | * The crew of the ''[[Mary Celeste]]'' are all named.

* The battle between the Daleks and the [[funfair]] [[robot]]s results in two Dalek casualties instead of one - one has its [[Dalek Eyestalk|eyestalk]] ripped off by [[Dracula (robot)|Dracula]] and the other is launched down the stairs by [[Frankenstein (robot)|Frankenstein's monster]]. Both of the Daleks explode. One explosion damages Dracula, exposing his robotic components. One Dalek blast intended for the Doctor and Ian also sets a curtain on [[fire]], bathing the room in a red light. The [[Grey Lady]] is omitted entirely from the novelisation. | * The battle between the Daleks and the [[funfair]] [[robot]]s results in two Dalek casualties instead of one - one has its [[Dalek Eyestalk|eyestalk]] ripped off by [[Dracula (robot)|Dracula]] and the other is launched down the stairs by [[Frankenstein (robot)|Frankenstein's monster]].

* Steven lists the [[Human-Draconian War|conflict]] fought against the [[Draconian Empire]] and the [[Third Dalek War]] as factors which put an end to [[Earth Empire|Earth's]] expansionist phase.

Dalek Killer (comic story)|Abslom Daak... Dalek Killer]]'' and ''[[Prisoner of the Daleks (novel)|Prisoner of the Daleks]]''; a Third Dalek War would only be referenced in the Virgin New Adventures, ''[[Lucifer Rising (novel)|Lucifer Rising]]'' and ''[[Sky Pirates!
