A Timeline of the Newbury & Hobbes Universe

Wow, I think this would be going a bit too far. All we have (on the provided link at least) is a "list" os George Mann's "Newbury & Hobbes" novels. I see that he himself writes the blog/website, but he certainly did not list "all" his works there.

We don't have him saying "Hey, all my novels happen in the same universe". We have one DWU book listed there (I only could find "Paradox Lost". If there is another, I didn't see it).

Additionally, under the "Newbury & Hobbes" page of the very same blog, there is no mention of "Paradox Lost" at all.

Archibald Angelchrist, one of the (seemingly) main conection between "Paradox Lost" and "Newbury & Hobbes" originated on The Affinity Bridge, a book from the "Newbury & Hobbes" series, and later appeared on "Paradox Lost". As SOTO pointed out, "Usually, when an outside character is used in a work of Doctor Who, we only cover the character's DWU appearances, and give information outside of that only in the 'behind the scenes' and 'external links' sections." This seems to me just a case where a non-DWU character crosses over to a DWU story, much like Bart Simpson appearing on COMIC: Party Animals
