Lawrence Miles (born 1972 in Middlesex) is a science-fiction author best known for his work on original Doctor Who novels (both for the Virgin New Adventures and BBC Books series), and the subsequent spin-off Faction Paradox.
Miles' major contribution to the Doctor Who expanded universe is the "War in Heaven" arc begun in his novel Alien Bodies. The major elements of this arc were reused, without the Doctor Who references, to create the Faction Paradox universe.
Miles is also known for being an outspoken member of the Doctor Who fan community, having publicly voiced his frank opinions of other Doctor Who authors and fans in an infamous "final" interview before withdrawing from fandom. (The interview was not printed in the intended fanzine, but was subsequently posted on the Internet; see External links.) Miles later changed his mind and has conducted interviews since. He now enjoys popularity as editor and writer of the Faction Paradox series, which encompasses books, comic books and audio dramas.
