The War Doctor - Infernal Devices
by John Dorney, Phil Mulryne, and Matt Fitton
Published 30 April 2016
The Doctor, a hero. The War Doctor - the version of him who turned his back on the name in order to do what had to be done. John Hurt returns as this enigmatic figure for a series set in Doctor Who's Time War...2.1 LEGION OF THE LOST by John Dorney. In a time of war, every means of victory must be explored. In the Time War, the unthinkable must be thought, and neither side can afford to be squeamish about their methods. When the destruction of an obscene weapon leads to the Time Lord once known as the Doctor uncovering a secret Gallifreyan initiative, he cannot believe what is being considered. Should victory be sought at any cost or are there worse possibilities than losing to the Daleks? 2.2 A THING OF GUILE by Phil Mulryne. The Daleks are developing a secret weapon on Asteroid Theta 12. It is imperative that their plans are uncovered. Cardinal Ollistra has her hands full studying the range of ancient and mysterious armaments the universe has to offer, but she makes it a personal mission to investigate the Dalek project. On this dangerous assignment, there is one particular Time Lord she wants at her side - and he will be accompanying her whether he wants to or not. 2.3
THE NEVERWHEN by Matt Fitton. On an isolated world ravaged by battle, time itself has become a weapon, laying waste to all who live and die there. Arms and technology are in a state of flux - and it seems that everlasting war is their only option. The arrival of one battered Type Forty TARDIS inside this nightmare offers hope to the combatants trapped within. But when he discovers the truth, the horrors of the Neverwhen will shock even the War Doctor...Big Finish present John Hurt as The War Doctor, a character created for, and central to, Doctor Who's 50th Anniversary Special The Day of the Doctor, shown on TV and in cinemas in 2013.

Book 5
Doctor Who: The War Doctor Begins - Comrades-in-Arms
by Timothy X. Atack, Phil Mulryne, and Noga Flaishon
Published 31 July 2023
The Doctor is no more. In his place, a warrior, finally joining the Time War between the Daleks
and Gallifrey. But how far will he go to end the conflict? What lines will he cross? How much of
himself will he sacrifice?
And can a chance of redemption lie in changing the fate of a fellow soldier? Contains three new adventures:
1. A Mother’s Love by Noga Flaishon.
Responding to a distress call, the War Doctor arrives on Haven: a state-of-the-art Time Lord
field hospital, operated by the highly advanced ‘Medbay Operation Mainframe’ – or M.O.M.
But the station has been compromised. M.O.M.’s secrets run deep, time is running out, and
the War Doctor must renew some old alliances if everyone is to get out alive…
2. Beserker by Timothy X Atack.
Sunspire was devastated by the Daleks centuries ago. The last of its people are returning to
seek out their heritage in an underground bunker, and save their species from extinction. Case
and the War Doctor join the mission, posing as a Dalek-Killer and her squire.
But the bunker has an occupant: a single Berserker Dalek, driven insane by four hundred years
of solitude...
3. Memnos by Phil Mulryne.
Memnos: a secret Time Lord project, recording everything lost to the Time War. A place where
the War Doctor can admit his part in the conflict and seek solace – and perhaps where he can
find salvation for Case.
But the Dalek Time Strategist will not let slip her potential. She could be the Daleks’ greatest
weapon. The battle for Case’s soul will be won or lost in Memnos.
Cast: Jonathon Carley (The War Doctor), Ajjaz Awad (Case), Nicholas Briggs (Daleks), Beth
Chalmers (Veklin), Georgia Mackenzie (M.O.M. / Medbots), Tiegan Byrne (Runa), Lynsey
Murrell (Alm), Esmonde Cole (Yorkin), Deeivya Meir (Pera), Sophie Khan Levy (Salvin / Vaia),
