Faction Paradox is a series of novels centered around the War. The series originated as a spin-off of the BBC Doctor Who books. A spin-off of the Faction Paradox series, The City of the Saved, began in 2012.
Overview[]
The Faction Paradox series is centered around the War, a history-spanning conflict between the Great Houses of the Time Lords and their unnamed enemy. Originally a subplot in the Eighth Doctor Adventures, the War features characters and concepts evolved from the original Doctor Who set-up, in several cases with names changed or obscured for reasons literary (most of the groups or items mentioned are described in rather different terms with emphasis on certain aspects) and legal (BBC-owned properties are referred to by secondary, non-BBC-owned names). Faction Paradox themselves are not the Enemy, and play a relatively small, neutral part in the War, willing to act against both sides in their own interests.
