Review of Red for Danger by doctorwho_reviews76

Red for Danger - 5/10

This section is good continuation of the first part to this story, it follows Andy’s point of view as he finds his brother Jeff on Dalek controlled Venus.

The story being more focused on Andy gives chance for him to develop a little bit in the sense we learn about his aggressive tendencies and all in all fighting nature, but also his deep care for his brother and sister who are in Dalek hands. The character of Andy is definitely somewhat likeable and good to root for.

The actual plot line is very slow here with the title playing a big part in the story as Jeff is locked up and helping the Daleks by providing them a red lead finish to counteract the rusting the Daleks are facing on Venus due to moisture in the air. To cut to the point Jeff spikes the paint with a form of crystal that acts as an explosive when heated in the sun which in turn allows the brothers to escape the Dalek controlled lead mine.

All in all a solid continuation of the story but not yet an entertaining one.
