About this listen

The Great Time War has raged for centuries, ravaging the universe. Scores of human colony planets are now overrun by Dalek occupation forces. A weary, angry Doctor leads a flotilla of Battle TARDISes against the Dalek stronghold but in the midst of the carnage, the Doctor's TARDIS crashes to a planet below: Moldox.

As the Doctor is trapped in an apocalyptic landscape, Dalek patrols roam amongst the wreckage, rounding up the remaining civilians. But why haven't the Daleks simply killed the humans?

Searching for answers the Doctor meets 'Cinder', a young Dalek hunter. Their struggles to discover the Dalek plan take them from the ruins of Moldox to the halls of Gallifrey, and set in motion a chain of events that will change everything. And everyone.

Read by Nicholas Briggs, the 'voice of the Daleks' in Doctor Who, this epic novel of the Great Time War features the War Doctor as played by John Hurt in the hit BBC TV series. Reading produced by Neil Gardner.Sound design by Simon Hunt.Executive producer: Michael Stevens.

Briggs’ impression of John Hurt as the War Doctor is incredible! The dialogue is witty and the story is compelling. A perfect doctor novel and I want more stories about this 8.5th Doctor incarnation since the show only gave us a fraction of an episode on the War Doctor.

First great story of the War Doctor

nothing inspiring, but it does give us some insight into the war doctor albeit not much. no idea why he's not "worthy" of the name doctor. sound design is great at per BBC makes sure. it's a fun small distraction, with some fun concepts.

it's fine
