Doctor Who Anachrophobia by Jonathan Morris

This extensive text is comprised of excerpts from the 2002 original novel Doctor Who: Anachrophobia by Jonathan Morris, indicated by the title page information and about the author section. The narrative follows the Eighth Doctor and his companions, Fitz and Anji, as they become entangled in a complex time war between the Plutocratic Empire and an enemy identified as the defaulters. The conflict utilizes dangerous time manipulation technology, including Accelerated Time (AT) and Decelerated Time (DT) zones, which leads to a chronological infection transforming soldiers like Bragg and Lane into clock-faced automatons driven by the desire to manipulate their personal pasts. The Doctor uncovers that the war is a cynical, self-sustaining economic model orchestrated by actuaries to eliminate bad debtors and maximize profits, before ultimately being confronted by the infection himself as he attempts to stop the spread.
