Review of The Road Untravelled by Callandor

2 January 2025

This review contains spoilers!

Reflected Waters

Prerequisites: Nowhere, Never at least, and a plethora of other assorted bits and ends (mentioned in that audio's review)

The Road Untravelled is a bit stronger than the previous audio in this set, but not by a ton. The setting is super engaging, as the cast makes their way across an old Gallifreyan warship from eons ago. I also really like some of the character moments we get here, as Alex is finally told of his actual origins in this reality, and of the fate of the 'real' him. However, I can't quite put this audio into 'great' territory because there's just no resolution. We never see any characters interact with any titular 'reflected', they never escape, and Alex and the Doctor never finish their conversation about Alex not being the 'real' one. I'm sure that these questions will be answered by the remaining stories, but unless something's an explicit Part 1, I like stories to have endings within them.
