Ehh, it was entertaining but not great. Plot was a bit boring/prdictable. I also tend to prefer a cast member do an audio book from Doctor Who.

http://nwhyte.livejournal.com/2071806.html[return][return]This is the very last Rory/Amy audiobook (unless we return to them in future flashbacks), featuring the old (ie 2010-12) version of the theme tune, with the three turning up on a giant space station called J�rmungandr after the Midgard Serpent; lots of snakey creatures and references, with wormholes and cobra-like aliens. It is surprisingly slow paced for a New Who story (which I don't mind; frenetic doesn't always work for me), and Francis Barber reading it stumbles occasionally over the names (though does a fine rendition of the characters), but it is competent stuff.

A good story with a good reader. No amazing accents to note but the reading was well paced.

The Tardis lands and the Doctor convinces Rory to go out to explore before Amy can get to the door. So, of course, the three get separated. The Doctor and Rory end up in a futuristic science lab where Doctor Mussurana is powering up the wormhole she's spent her life working with her husband and lab partner Wharner to create. Amy and the Tardis go through the wormhole and end up across the galaxy.
