Review of Mary’s Story by dema1020

I was really excited for this one. Perhaps too much so, as a short audio like this can only do so much. It feels like an interesting companion of "The Haunting of Villa Diodati" even if they don't quite blend with each other.
Still, there's so much fun to be had I can't be too hard on it. Mary Shelley, Byron, and most of all Eight are all excellent in this. There's some fun ideas with a Frankenstein Doctor and a regenerating TARDIS being tossed around. And a new, very cool idea for a companion joins the team. I'm a bit irked her time with the Doctor runs so short, but I still have to check those other audios out so we will have to see. It feels relevant to mention that though, since a lot of Mary's Story is kind of set-up for that future with the Doctor, and I'll be curious how I feel about this audio after listening to the rest of Shelley's adventures.
