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.

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. Guardax View profile Like Liked 0 Open in new window Statistics AVG.
