I did not care for this audio much at all. Sure, it makes an interesting sort of prelude to Time War content, I guess, but otherwise it just feels like a waste. A waste of Evelyn Smythe, who felt like such a strong companion in her initial appearances, a waste of Romana's return, a waste of the Daleks, and a waste of the Time Lords. Even the sound effects got annoying after a while. Not a fun audio, definitely not something I would like to revisit any time soon, and overall a bit of a disappointment, even by early Big Finish standards. That being said, it very much feels like something the company would be able to polish more in the future.

I do appreciate its role in Who history though, and this is an early yet great prototype to the great voice acting of Nicholas Briggs for the Daleks, which I definitely think is a bright spot here in an otherwise very skippable audio.
