The Seeds of War was the one hundred and seventy-first story in Big Finish's monthly range. It was written by Nicholas Briggs and featured Colin Baker as the Sixth Doctor and Bonnie Langford as Melanie Bush.

This story was a sequel to the first-recorded but later-released Destroy the Infinite which featured the Fourth Doctor — or, put another way, Destroy the Infinite is a prequel to this story, since it came out second.

Publisher's summary[[edit] | [edit source]]

Humanity is emerging from a long, exhausting war. Against an enemy so powerful, so implacable, it seemed unstoppable — right up until the moment it stopped.

Now, despite its "victory", the human race is on its knees. The Doctor and Mel join its struggle for survival to try to ensure it has a future.

A race against time takes them from the Great Tower of Kalsos to the Reliquaries of Earth. In an epic journey across the ten systems, their fates are intertwined with one family. The Tevelers are to feel the effects of war more than most...

The Doctor has a plan. Mel is sure he can save the day. But something is lurking. Watching. Waiting. A presence the Doctor knows of old. But just how far does its influence pervade?

The Eminence awaits...
