This is part of a series of reviews of Doctor Who in chronological timeline order. Previous Story: A Shard of Ice I'm really enjoying how different the style of these stories are from one to the next. This one is especially similar to The Return of Doctor Mysterio but in my opinion this does the whole idea much better. I'm also enjoying the different narrators for each story, it's a good contrast to Hornets' Nest being mainly narrated by the Doctor. We finally get more insight into the Demon and their motivations are much clearer now. I did quite like the reveal that this whole story was a comic book being read to us, it's similar to the reveal at the end of the last story. Once again, the cover art is fantastic and captures that comic-book look. Next Story: Sepulchre thedefinitearticle63 View profile Like Liked 1 Open in new window Statistics AVG.
