This is part of a series of reviews of Doctor Who in chronological timeline order.

Previous Story: The Seeds of War

I have a feeling if it weren't for the Russell T Davies connection this lost story would have never been produced by Big Finish. It's got nothing worthwhile going on. The Hodiac is a really interesting character but they're let down by being in a story so dull you can hardly keep your eyes open.

This story barely even seems like an RTD story. It's got none of his hallmarks (that I noticed atleast). The only oddity I noticed was 6's characterisation being quite bizarre which seems to me like a relic of the average fan's view of the character. Besides that, there's nothing to recommend here.

Next Story: The Exaltation

I found it enjoyable but hard to follow - so had to keep scrolling back. I ended up getting it all in the end though. Great dialogue. Fun ideas. Ultimately doesn’t add up to much. The best thing about it is the mind melding clash of eras - for which I am very grateful to Big Finish!
