VICTORY XIV
Jon Culshaw narrates this Short Trip, which sees the Delgado Master attempt to break into the most secure vault in the universe. Culshaw is good at channelling Delgado’s take on the Master, and the story is a fun little take on a one-man heist movie, with the Time Lord Victorious angle bringing in a couple of familiar elements from other stories.
The story is intriguing to begin with, but it runs out of air a bit halfway through.
It’s easy to miss out on this, but part of the story takes place on an unnamed jungle planet, where the Master acquired the Devolver (from The Enemy of My Enemy, Victory XIII), which he uses for his plans.
