Previous Story: Chronomancer


This story was absolutely brilliant. I'm not usually a fan of Matthew Sweet's stuff but his particular brand of absurdity is perfectly suited for something like this. It sort of tricks you into believing this will somehow tie into the larger Hebe narrative only for it to be a bunch of irrelevant aliens carrying out a ridiculously over-complicated revenge plan on the Doctor. It's a brilliant subversion of expectations, really funny stuff.

The Broadway stuff is also brilliant, I love when Big Finish do a musical and this is no exception. The music itself isn't great or anything, but it fits the story perfectly. The resolution to the story was great, I like when things like that are set up early in the story and using something as classic as the Blinovitch Limitation Effect in an actually interesting way was a great touch.

Really good story.
