Review of Sword of Orion by william4774379

29 June 2025

This review contains spoilers!

Part One


3.5/5

This part felt fairly inconsequential as most of the time is spent simply trying to reach the Star Destroyer, which I assume will be the main setting for the rest of the story. I still enjoyed this part though as it does spend a lot of time on properly establishing the Doctor and Charley’s dynamics.

 

Part Two


3.5/5

This part felt like it was dragging its feet until the Cyberman reveal. Especially because of the murder mystery that wasn’t really a mystery as it was obviously the Cybermen that did it.

 

Part Three


3.5/5

The early parts with the Doctor and Deeva exploring the Star Destroyer and gradually finding more and more about what the Cybermen were doing was cool. It’s nice to see the Cybermen’s main goal being converting humans as well. There is definitely something suspect about Deeva as well, my guess is she is a military commander sent specifically to eliminate the Cybermen.

 

Part Four


3.5/5

Having both sides of the war be willing to use a moral tactics invoking Cyber-conversion felt like a good way of showing the lack of morality in war even if one side may have a more moral reason for fighting the war.
