Clapham had written for the range previously and brought on board new writer Miller as he was busy working onThe Taking of Planet 5. Clapham himself described the book as, "a horrendously rushed job, and a lot of the problems come from having too many cooks at the plotting stage – we had to reconcile all the Benny/Gods threads that needed wrapping up, satisfyPeter Darvill-Evans' requirements for the last book, fit with a title which had already been established, and somehow do a couple of ideas of our own if we could fit them in."[2]
