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 chain events that will change everything. And everyone.
An Astor Sabbathiel Novel. After being thought dead for nearly a hundred
years, Sabbathiel returns. Now, facing mistrust wherever she turns, she must
prove her worth once more. Listen to it because.... A powerful Inquisitor
returns from the brink of death to a world that she barely recognises, full of
people that do not trust her—and facing a terrifying future that only she can
prevent. The story: Inquisitor Astor Sabbathiel has a problem: she’s been dead
for nearly a hundred years...or so everyone believes. The last thing she
remembers is being shot at point-blank range just as a roiling warp storm
engulfed the Calaphrax Cluster. Now, she finds herself awakening on a distant
Ecclesiarchy stronghold and indebted to a magos called Metik, who has brought
her back from the brink of death. Shortly after her resurrection, Sabbathiel
is called to an audience on the planet Hulth by a high-ranking inquisitor of
the Ordo Hereticus, Heldren, who informs her that after being lost for so
long, the members of her former conclave no longer trust her. Forced to
undertake a mission to prove herself worthy and true, Sabbathiel soon
discovers a secret agenda beginning to unfold—one that contains a burgeoning
threat to the Imperium that only she can avert. Trying to assemble the
fragments of the past to make sense of the mysteries of the present,
Sabbathiel will need to act fast and decide who to trust quickly, or else risk
the fate of the future. Written by George Mann. Narrated by Helen Keeley.
