Captivating, haunting and an eerie setting that grabs your attention from start to finish. The way this story is told makes the unfolding of the mystery much more interesting.

Plus the final plot twist is as dark as Doctor Who can get in my opinion.

When it comes to the Fifth Doctor Range I'm usually asleep half way through and I have to rewind (except for the excellent Spare Parts) but this story was amazing, hope the quality keeps being this high (probably not but oh well)

This story is ambitious, I'll give them that. It doesn't help that I did this in two sittings, parts 1+2 then 3+5, however I don't think it would've helped much in any case. Being out of order didn't work for me, and it made me disconnected from the plot and characters. Unfortunately not a hit for me.

yeah i dont know about this one. i get what its trying to do, but im not sure it does it particularly well, and i dont think the non-linear storytelling was really necessary to get its point across

Honestly I was shocked to learn that this was by Nick Briggs, like he is a very competent Writer, don’t get me wrong, but usually his Stories don’t do much for me or make me go “Oh that was interesting”, this one on the other hand.. Oh boi did I feel intrigued. Admittedly not all of it worked for me, the non-linear structure is fascinating and for the most Part well done, even if it got a bit confusing at times. The Highlight of this Release is easily the Sound Design, as well as Briggs Dialogue, which feels very special and gives this Audio a different sort of flavor to it. What does with its Themes is pretty amazing. And since others have already articulated it so well, I am not going to try (and fail) with that, so I highly recommend reading what others have said about the Themes in particular!

If anything, I think this Story is a match made in heaven for the TARDIS Team of Nyssa and 5, it just adds to the Story greatly.
Looking at the Reactions, I think this is easily one of those ‘you either love/really like it’ or ‘feel cold about it’, for me, I am in the former camp! What a delightful surprise, who knew Briggs had it in him to write a thought-provoking Tale, that is anything but a crowd-pleaser?

Now this is creative storytelling. I thought I would struggle to get on board, the brilliant use of structure and audience expectations creates a brilliant timey-esc story that fits together perfectly. I do need to re-listen.
