MY SCATTERED AND TOTALLY IRRELEVANT NOTES:

Simon Guerrier delivers an engaging and entertaining tale where the Doctor and the Master swap bodies. This leads to the Doctor being imprisoned and plotting his escape, while the Master struggles to manipulate the TARDIS to make his getaway. The Doctor's uncanny portrayal of the Master only deepens his predicament, while the Master's overly convincing attempt at acting humanely raises suspicions among UNIT personnel.

The story cleverly fills in some gaps from the TV series, offering explanations for details like the Master’s transfer to a less secure prison in The Sea Devils and the TARDIS interior changes in The Time Monster. Guerrier makes excellent use of the characters, effectively exploring both the contrasts and parallels between the Doctor and the Master.
