The Ever-and-Ever-Prolixity has granted Charlotte Pollard her dearest wish and set her loose once more in time and space. But where has it brought her? Waking amid the minatory darkness of a forest floor, she has no notion of where she is, or when.

Welcomed at gunpoint and beset by danger, Charley finds herself immediately embroiled in a frantic struggle for survival. For there are perilous shadows in this night-time forest. There are hungry, watchful eyes. And there is something ancient also, something tracking her, something implacable and ruthless which knows Miss Pollard of old...

I liked this episode quite a bit, and I think I understand the structure of the series now, Charley goes into the prolixity and does something related to the overall Viyran/Lamentation Cypher plot (assuming it continues like this). I think the main problem I had with it was that I guessed the twist of the Slaverings being the infected expeditionary men very early on, which slightly lessened the experience, but other than that, a very solid story.

This series continues to be very well made, and I had a fine time listening. My big issue was the twist of the Slaverings being the missing men was so incredibly obvious that it was a little painful waiting around for everyone else to get with the program. As well, the main antagonist, Mrs. Turneman was just getting on my nerves a lot of the story. (Jacqueline King is a fantastic voice actor though, I would've never guessed). Still, the overall mystery is keeping me interesting and India Fisher is as good a narrator as Charley is a character.
