Faction Paradox (series)

The Faction Paradox series is a collection of audio, prose and comic stories begun and majority-owned by Lawrence Miles. It centres on a version of Faction Paradox that is explicitly not the one introduced in the Doctor Who novel Alien Bodies.

For legal reasons, Miles and his stable of FP writers cannot refer directly to anything in the DWU; "TARDISes" are replaced by "timeships", Gallifrey by "the Homeworld", and so on. In the Faction Paradox series, Faction Paradox is not even composed of Time Lords. Moreover, the narrative of the series deliberately violates the Faction Paradox continuity established in the Eighth Doctor Adventures, particularly as regards the outcome of the War (known as "the Second War in Heaven" in the FP series), the defining narrative feature of the Faction Paradox run in Doctor Who novels.

Despite this, some fans are not bothered by the fact that names, places and situations have been altered for the FP series and are happy to try to make some sort of connection between the FPU and the DWU. For this reason, the Faction Paradox series receives coverage on a number of Doctor Who websites.

Not this one, however. It is this wiki's policy to refer you to the, for more information about that series.
