The Final Dalek War was a hypothesised future conflict. It was supposedly sparked by Skaro's penultimate destruction. Gordel theorised that the Needle People were the super-evolved survivors of the Thal race, fleeing the Final Dalek War. (PROSE: The Infinity Doctors)
Behind the scenes[]
- In a cut scene from Lance Parkin's earlier novel The Dying Days, the 42nd Doctor described the events of the Final Dalek War to Jason Kane and Iphegenia. During the Final Dalek War, the Children of Kasterborous teamed up with humanity to fight the Daleks in their own territory. Tens of trillions died, and entire galaxies were destroyed, but after countless years of fighting the Daleks were driven to extinction. In their wake, the people of the universe were left united in universal peace.[1]
