gnarlywolf's review against another edition
2.0
Eccleston is great in it but it feels like any Doctor could have been a lead in this ok story. It felt like it should have been shorter as the one story split among a 3 parts feels stretched thin and didn't bring a story that could display the excitement that we are hearing the reintroduction of the Ninth Doctor. Nothing epic but just something that felt like it was for the Ninth Doctor and not something that Big Finish had sitting on the shelf having it's references get stale. I am looking forward to the next set of stories that have more focus on the individual parts rather than trying to connect them with flimsy overarching fluff.

The Ninth Doctor crosses his own time stream, dealing with a corporate dystopia, eddies in time, and the end of the universe. The plot doesn't really hang together and the final scene still bothers me for how out of character it feels, but Nova is a really charming companion, the way it plays with time travel is delightful, and while there's a lot of supporting characters they all carry their weight. Also, it's the first Ninth Doctor Adventure! Chris Eccleston, so glad to have you back! He's clearly having a lot of fun with the role and that counts for a lot.
