Доктора посылают в так называемую "Нулевую зону" - оккупированный далеками сектор, в котором путешествие во времени более не возможно, чтобы спасти агента Сератрикса, якобы владеющего важной информацией, необходимой для победы в Войне. Доктор хотят приставить команду, но он работает один и сбегает, и потом команда отправляется за ним в погоню. Так же возвращается персонаж из предыдущей пьесы - Реджойс, и признаюсь, воссоединение её и Доктора было очень мило прописано. Сама атмосфера отчаяния тоже работает, ибо место действия напрямую связано с Кеской - планетой из предыдущей пьесы, и несколько сюжетных поворотов обеспечены. Веклин, что руководит командой, которую должны были приставить к Доктору, мелькала в прошлой пьесе, но здесь полноценно появляется, и уже успела в себя влюбить. Обожаю Бет Чалмерс. И развязка сюжета с тем, что Сератрикс явно не намерен так легко отдавать добытую информацию, тоже интригует и подводит к следующей пьесе. Погнали. А, и ещё. Обложка огонь The fun begins. Doctors are sent to the so-called "Zero Zone"—an area occupied by distance sectors where time travel is no longer possible—to rescue Agent Seratrix, who allegedly possesses important information needed to win the War. They want to assign a team to the Doctor, but he works alone and escapes, and then the team goes after him. Also, a character from the previous play, Redjoyce, returns, and I must admit, the reunion of her and the Doctor was very sweetly written. The atmosphere of desperation also works, as the setting is directly related to Keska—a planet from the previous play, and several plot twists are guaranteed. Veklin, who leads the team that was supposed to be assigned to the Doctor, was mentioned in the previous play, but here she fully appears and has already managed to fall in love with herself. I adore Beth Chalmers. And the plot resolution, with Seratrix clearly not intending to easily relinquish the obtained information, is also intriguing and leads up to the next play. Let’s go. Oh, and one more thing. The cover is fire. (Translation generated by AI, so mistakes are possible). Five_Hundredth_Drax View profile Like Liked 0 Open in new window Statistics AVG.
