Justin Richards (in-universe)

Justin Richards was an author in the latter half of the 20th century who wrote fictional stories about a mysterious man known only as "the Doctor". He also wrote novels about the Victorian era, entitled: The Death Collector, The Parliament of Blood, and The Chamber of Shadows.

By the 21st century, Justin became alientologist who wrote the book The Secret Lives of Monsters, which exposed the alien activity on Earth that had long been covered up by governments and organisations like Torchwood and UNIT. He brought together evidence that had been hidden for centuries to reveal the truth about aliens. The book consisted largely of previously classified documents compiled and published for the first time by Richards with the help of whistleblowers and journalists, including James Stevens and Benjamin Nevis.

Behind the scenes

 * The alientologist Justin Richards shares his name with Justin Richards, the real-world author of The Secret Lives of Monsters and the writer of many other Doctor Who prose and audio works.
 * The metafictional idea of an DWU author also appearing in N-Space is a fun way for authors to spice up their stories. There are even multiple stories about Paul Magrs' fictional counterpart!
