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

Previous Story: Casualties of War

What a story! It finally explains why we've been seeing the "45" crop up everywhere throughout the last 3 stories. The Word Lord is a brilliant villain. He's my favourite kind of villain; all-powerful God bound by some silly rule that can defeat them. The way it all comes together is genuinely brilliant. This story easily makes this whole anthology worth it.

Next Story: The Magic Mousetrap

The Word Lord possui uma distância enorme e bem significativa de qualidade comparada as 3 histórias anteriores - A trama do 4° áudio vai direto ao ponto aproveitando muito bem seus poucos 25 minutos de história entregando um ótimo andamento narrativo não dando tempo para ouvinte se distrair com outras coisas. Dessa vez o Doutor, Ace e Hex foram abordados dentro de uma base ultrassecreta na Antártica e são acusados de terem cometido um assassinato. Logo conhecemos o excelente e interessante vilão chamado “Nobody No-One” o malfeitor que está por trás disso tudo.

Honestly, I'm not sure what I just listened to. Thirty minutes was far too short for me to grasp what the Word Lord actually was. I think it was a great and unique concept, (from what I understood,) which I'd like to see again, but this story didn't quite cut it for me. Should've at least been 45 minutes or longer. (Pun intended)

On the bright side, this was my first introduction to Seven, Ace, and Hex. Overall I really enjoyed their dynamics in this story and am excited to check out their classic episodes and audios.

2.5/5
