Blurb from Goodreads:
"The death of billions is as nothing to us Doctor,
if it helps defeat the Daleks."
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.

3.5/5
stars
The
Great Time War has affected hundreds of planets including Moldox home to Cinder
a young woman who hunts Daleks.
Her life is turned upside down when a blue box
falls from the sky and she meets the Doctor.
Can they stop the Daleks from
winning the war?
I really
enjoyed this. It was interesting to read about the War Doctor and to see what
events led to him using the Moment.
I liked Cinder and thought she was a good
companion.
Overall
this was a good, interesting read that I would definitely recommend for Doctor
Who fans.
