I quite enjoyed this audio. I was a little skeptical as it starts out feeling like a hammy version of Romeo and Juliet, but it turns out to be a pretty fun story all about these clones living as Greek Gods, keeping themselves Immortal by constantly raising and eventually inhabiting new, younger bodies. It's strange, certainly, and an unconventional story, but that's kind of perfect for Doctor Who. I like how Zeus tries to couple with Lucie but it feels very much like he wasn't going to ever force her. It was so weird, awkward, and poorly thought out by this powerful being that I couldn't help but laugh at our main villain, and yet it didn't feel like that diminished the stakes or my investment in Immortal Beloved. There's something about this story that just came across as a very cozy and classic adventure, even if the premise feels a little unique and creative. It's an interesting one that I think is a little underrated. I would definitely recommend this audio. dema1020 View profile Like Liked 1 14 March 2025 · 22 words Review by Azurillkirby 1 Pretty ingenious premise for a story. Very emotional story that does all that it sets out to do. I loved this. A+.

The whole "modern tech in ancient times" angle felt a little underdeveloped, and the who body swap thing was creepy. recommend skipping this one whitestar1993 View profile Like Liked 1 14 August 2024 · 83 words Review by 15thDoctor Spoilers 2 This review contains spoilers! Its relief to transport Lucie and The Doctor to a more regal, stately setting which sits in sharp contrast to the first two stories. It is the strongest installment of the series so far - a proper sci-fi concept developed into a twisty, clever plot. The reincarnation machine concept gives the actors a fun and dynamic way of playing multiple characters. It leaves room for a few surprises and plenty of subterfuge. Its certainly the first installment that had me gasp with surprise! 15thDoctor View profile Like Liked 2 6 August 2024 · 19 words Review by Colindalaska 2 A slightly underwhelming story (the ending is very obvious) is lifted substantially by the quality of the vocal performance.
