Previous Story: Vampire of the Mind
As someone who really liked The Burning Prince this is a really disappointing follow up. Admittedly, the story of the last one was fairly generic aswell, but it made up for it with very compelling characters and some fantastic performances. This doesn't really have any of that. It's generic in every way possible.
Having Prince Kylo return as the villain of this story wasn't a twist I expected, nor is it one I wanted. It reminds me a lot of what they did with Adric in The Boy That Time Forgot (though not nearly that bad thank goodness). This could have been a lot better if it was only an hour long, I think they could have easily condensed it down to that length. Overall, not impressed. It's not a bad story, just disappointing.
