(4.5 out of 5);
The Diary of River Song: Series 5 is another great installment in The Diary of River Song series. It's one of the only box sets in the River Song line to feature four completely stand-alone stories; there is no overarching plotline that links these stories together. They really are just four, completely separate adventures featuring River and four different incarnations of the Master. It's a lot of fun hearing Alex Kingston's River Song interact with four of the most iconic Masters currently working with Big Finish Productions, and each of those actors perfectly recreates their incarnation of the villain in adventures that are perfectly suited for them. I thoroughly enjoyed this box set and I'm looking forward to the next releases from Missy, River Song, and the War Master.

I honestly adore all incarnations of the Master and I love River, so this was like my dream boxset. Each had wonderful chemistry with River and all were really fun, engaging stories. I hope they all cross paths again!

The first story, “The Bekdel Test” was one of the best Big Finish audios I’ve heard so far!

This Master-filled Diary of River Song set has some very funny moments. Really loved this.
