Trivia
- The saga has many instances of retroactive continuity:
- Nihilantis was originally the secondary antagonist of Book 1 - "The Insurgency", however as the saga developed and Nihilantis developed as a character in Book 4 - "The Divine Resurgence", his earlier appearance was erased.
- Book 1 - "The Insurgency" has a deleted chapter where Andrei is transported to the planet Skantos, but it is now presented as him falling unconscious en route to TERAPRO.
- Anahita and Isla existed as characters well before the time period in which Book 1 - "The Insurgency" takes place, and therefore their origin stories were adjusted.
- There are many instances in the earlier books in which countries are presented as individuals - any mention of countries outside of Book 5 - "From Dusk to Dawn in Miyaki" is considered as referring to the president of the country or a similar important figure. For example, Jimmy Navarro is referred to where "California" is named.
- There are considerable lore discrepancies concerning Emerald as a character in Book 1 - "The Insurgency." They are now considered a separate character rather than a fusion gem.
- The Digiverse project, although labelled as being in its prototype phase by the events of Book 6 - "Once more, unto the Digiverse!", is inferred to have begun development soon after the "death" of Carbonado in Book 4 - "The Divine Resurgence". This was done in order to preserve Andrei and Cormac's continuity, in other words, provide a way in which they could live past old age.
- Book 7 - "The World Machine" was originally titled "Echoes of the Cataclysm".
- Book 8 - "The Flavros Project" was originally titled "The Loom of Fate."
