Christ this is gruesome, the art for Dalek-Squire throughout the entire book is just. Wow. That's some vivid imagery.

The cabal's plan as well is great here, basically just taking The Doctor's plan from the time war, but with the addition of Dalek ascension through hijacking the god's ascension and then killing the gods. Leads to some great art of daleks emerging from the malignant as the planet's population dies.

And then there's that opening speech (which of course I've added to the site). This writer *really* gets the daleks, and they feel more threatening here than in any of the Moffat era dalek stories, and Dalek-Squire is what Moffat could only dream of when making the dalek slaves in Asylum.

And lastly, Abslom Daak getting shot again!!!?!? Christ, he really just doesn't stay down does he. Dalek-Squire taunting him with the 'Exterminate' before shooting him is cold , even for a dalek.
