Publisher’s Summary
The Doctor’s home planet of Gallifrey has been destroyed. The Time Lords are dead, their TARDISes annihilated. The man responsible has been tracked down and lured to Earth in the year 2005, where there will be no escape. But Earth has other problems -- a mysterious signal is being received, a second moon appears in the sky, and a primordial alien menace waits to be unleashed...

The stage is set for the ultimate confrontation -- for justice to be done. The Doctor and his companions Fitz and Trix will meet their destiny. And this time, the Doctor isn’t going to be able to save everyone.

Continuity

 * The Doctor's battle with the Master in DW: Doctor Who: The TV Movie is referenced.


 * The events of EDA: The Ancestor Cell are revisited and analysed.


 * The Klade first appeared in EDA: Father Time (and were last mentioned in EDA: Trading Futures).


 * The grave for Samantha Lynn Jones seen here might contradict events in Interference - Book Two where it's implied that Sam Jones will lead a long life (beyond 22), however Samantha Lynn Jones, was Sam's original timeline (aka Dark Sam) seen last in EDA: Unnatural History.


 * At one point, Marnal says of the Doctor, "As for his future — he has three ninth incarnations". Fans have widely interpreted this as a nod to the REG Doctor (WC: Scream of the Shalka), Rowan Atkinson's Ninth Doctor (DW: The Curse of Fatal Death) and Christopher Eccleston's Ninth Doctor (DW: Rose). However Marnal's statements end there, without giving even a vague physical description of the future Ninth Doctors. The statement is thus open to multiple interpretations.
 * Gallifrey was attacked by; Omega in DW: The Three Doctors and DW: Arc of Infinity, the Sontarans in DW: The Invasion of Time, Tannis in WC: Death Comes to Time, the Faction Paradox in EDA: The Ancestor Cell, Catavolcus in DWM: The Neutron Knights, the Timewyrm in NA: Timewyrm: Revelation and Varnax in an unmade movie from the 1990s (detailed in REF: The Nth Doctor).
