Written between July and December 2006, Quest of the Daleks is a direct sequel to Redemption of the Daleks and is set four years after the events described in the Redemption Epilogue. It is longer than Redemption, at 65,000 words and is (I think) both deeper and darker than its predecessor and tends, in places, to be allegorical. 

I greatly enjoyed writing Quest and the 13 years gap between the two books has made quite a difference to the style, which I hope will be enjoyed by my readers. 

Once more, any comments are appreciated.

We wrote (mostly on a vintage typewriter, later on our Apple IIc) in episodic fashion, similar to Classic Who usually 4 "episodes" per story. We plotted out "seasons," determining story arcs and storylines. We did this for about 4 years. Around the time of the 20th anniversary of LAK, I transcribed the first story (which was the only one we wrote together - after the first one we took turns writing the stories) for my sister. Then - I rewrote it as a novella. I imagine the audience for this would be vanishingly small, but here goes ...
