Revision as of 20:55, 16 October 2016
Wirrn Dawn was the fourth release of the third series of Big Finish Productions' The New Eighth Doctor Adventures audio stories. This was the first Wirrn story since 2001's Race Memory.
Publisher's summary
“This is full scale war. Wirrn and humankind locked in a deadly struggle for survival. When did that happen?”
The Doctor and Lucie land right in the middle of one of the human race's bloodiest periods of history. Trying to make a difference here would be like standing up and calling for a cease-fire on the Somme. Certain death...
Or Worse.
Survival can be a messy business.
