Description

"The figures were massive. Their torsos were hugely bulky, and their fists were like pincers. Their eyes flashed red in the uncanny gloom. Their breathing sounded like punctured bellows: long, wet, fluttering sounds.
'Turns out my hunch was right,' said the Doctor, though he didn't sound at all pleased to be vindicated.
'What are they?' asked Amy.
'They're Ice Warriors!'"

So, as you may or may or may not know, there were two Doctor Who Christmas Specials last year: The (I thought less than stellar) 'The Doctor, The Widow and The Wardrobe' on TV, and the absolutely cracking novel 'The Silent Stars Go By' by Dan Abnett.
It's one of the best original Doctor Who novels I've read, and I highly recommend it, so here's my attempt to do a bit of Series 7 style promo-art for the story as though it actually were a TV episode made for the festive season. Hope everyone's looking forward to 'The Snowmen'.

So it only remains for me to say, in the words of the Doctor himself: "A toast, a Happy Christmas to all of us. And incidentally, a Happy Christmas to all of you at home!"
