3.0

The first few stories in this collection were mediocre and the problems were too easily resolved. However, I did like how each story led into the next and referenced the events before it; it was like watching a well connected season of the TV show. I also loved the characters and companions that helped the doctor: the independent and clever Izzy, the brazen Fey, and Shayde who is an artificial being created as a servant for Rassilon.

The story Wormwood was incredible. Set on the planet of Gallifrey, the Doctor must work against the Elysians, a sect of Time Lords set on destroying Gallifreyan history. The story was fast paced with believable and shocking plot twists, and this was one of the only stories that felt like a New Who episode. I loved it and it alone made me want to continue reading the other issues.
