Faustian

I have to say, the choice to do a Faust-like story with this Master in particular was tonally quite perfect. Eric Roberts elevates what could be a pretty normal and bog-standard audio adventure into something I just found delightful. Only really knowing this Master from the TV Movie (which I would consider a solid prerequisite for Faustian so you know what's going on), I am very eager to get more of this iteration of the villain as I find Roberts just outstanding.

Of course, this audio really is Lila Kreeg's story, and Laura Aikman fills it well. Faustian isn't a huge story but as a return tale for Roberts I think it is a pretty perfect choice to demonstrate his return. I think things get a little weaker around the secondary characters and the ending, but given that is kind of setting up future events, I give it a pass by and large. I had fun and was entertained, that's the most important part, so it's easy to overlook a few flaws.
