The Eleven Day Empire is the first Faction Paradox story I’m reading/listening to.
It was all I hoped for—a little bit of chaos, a little bit of madness, and some “Time Lord mysticism.” But there’s still enough structure and coherence to make for a good listening experience.

I enjoy being dropped into the middle of a story and figuring things out as I go. For me, this story had a good mix of sparse explanations and elements I had to file away for later. The gist of the story is clear, which is important for being able to follow along, and the open questions just make the listening experience more intriguing.

The cast did a bang-up job. As a non-native English speaker, I especially enjoyed the slight accent of Cousin Justine, played by Suzanne Proctor.

Overall, the production quality is high.
