Notes
- The book focuses on the untold adventures of the War Doctor portrayed by John Hurt, who fought in the Time War over an uncertain period of time (possibly 400 years in relative time, though, for the character of the War Doctor there are hints in some of the stories that is was considerably longer). Part of the aim of the book was to create an "era" for a Doctor which has largely been unrevealed.
- Although a number of contributors to the book have previously worked on Doctor Who in an official capacity, the book is not endorsed by the BBC and therefore should not be considered as canon.
- The book is dedicated to Paul Spragg, who discussed the concept of the book and helped bring a number of contributors together before his death. The preface is written by Nicholas Briggs.
- The book was produced in support of Caudwell Children.
- It was initially released as a PDF on January 31 2015 to anyone who donated via JustGiving.
- The book has illustrations by Paul Hanley, who designed the costume for Cinder, Carolyn Edwards, Paul Driscoll and Simon Brett.
- A short film featuring a young War Doctor played by Tom Menary was released to coincide with the release of the anthology. Additionally, the film features a portrayal of the Corsair played by Tom Hutchings, his character identifiable by an Ouroboros tattoo on his arm. the Corsair features in at least one of the stories in the anthology and his eventual fate is also mentioned.
