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

Previous Story: Sepulchre

It's a fun story though I think it's lost some of what makes Hornets' Nest and Demon Quest so unique. We've shifted to full-cast now with zero narration. I do prefer full-cast but the half-narrated style of the previous stories gave the characters a lot more depth. It was fun to listen to Tom Baker play the role of the villain aswell and it showcased his fantastic acting range.

I'll let the rest of this series play out before I give more in-depth opinions though I will add the cover art remains fantastic and after some research it turns out this is an homage to Geoff Love & His Orchestra: Star Wars and Other Galactic Themes.
