Not to be confused with The Art of War

The War of Art was a special short story written by Paul Cornell. It was a special reward in PDF format for winning the History Hunt, a special online game. It was based around events the Doctor encounters during the events of the game.

Summary

The Doctor leaves his favourite painting in an art gallery. He returns to find it, but he is not the only one that wants it.

Characters

References

This is a paradox as the Doctor only chose the painting because he knew the Arucha would leave it there.

Story notes

  • The title is a play on the cult book "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu. The book relates to guidlines for warfare in ancient China.
