I was planning to listen to all 16 parts of The War Master that have been released to date. There are four four-parters: Only The Good, Master Of Callous, Rage Of The Time Lords, Anti-Genesis. I started with the first released four-part serial, which is Only The Good (2017).
I quite enjoyed it: it's a masterclass in perfidy, and Jacobi dives right in. The third part, The Sky Man, represents a good illustration of the one advantage that audio plays over video: things can be hidden from the viewer that would be obvious if they could see the action. Would fully recommend Only The Good.
Having completed it, though, I realised that it must be the last of The War Master stories chronologically. I suppose "chronology" is kind of a nonsense in the DWU: what I mean is that within the Master's personal timeline it is the last to occur.
Do any of you know how the four serials exist chronologically? Or, for that matter, how they are arranged with respect to other Jacobi-Master stories such as The Devil You Know, Concealed Weapon, Day Of The Master, Master Of Worlds? Having looked at the precis I can't see a way to make sense of it.
