I was confused for most of this, because I couldn't follow along with both the plot and the characters' reasons for doing what they did. And the plot twist, the real villain's identity, just threw me out of the story. If the book was longer, I probably could have followed along better.

Interesting story. Lacks a bit of the charm of the doctors you’d experience in a show episode but pretty decent nonetheless

A multi-Doctor story done right. If you're a fan of Ten, Eleven and Twelve, this story will be a great ride for you. Naturally, it helps if one knows who all the characters are but if you grasp the Doctor-Companion dynamic, you can jump on board with whoever which Doctor is traveling around with quite quickly.
There's not much more to say. If you're a Whovian, like comics and you like at least rate one of the three Doctors who feature heavily in this story, it's worth getting and reading. If you rate them all (like me!) then you'll really enjoy this adventure.

I liked the references but I wish a couple of people were more a part of the story.

Pretty average read and definitely doesn't take advantage of a multi-Doctor story as much as it should have. Out of all the multi-Doctor stories I've read, this was definitely the weakest. But it still had a few decent moments.

A reader needs more knowledge of the First Doctor than I possess to get anything from these few pages. I’ll leave it to somebody with that background to determine if a more knowledgeable reader would find it worth reading

This is a rather lovely production: Doctors Ten, Elevan and Twelve join up with each other and their companions, comics-only Gabby Gonzalez (Ten) and Alice Obiefune (Eleven) with Clara Oswald, in an adventure that starts in a Paris cafe in 1923 and then diverts to Marinus (not the first recent story for me involving the Voord), exploring several alternative futures for each of the three Doctors in the story (each future presenting a different fourth Doctor). We also get cameos from the War Doctor and Ninth Doctor. And rather gloriously the book also includes several shorts, all written by Paul Cornell but with art by Marc Ellerby, Rachael Smith and Neil Torrance, suggesting that the Doctors do other stuff apart from having adventures, like buying comics and open mic comedy. A good adventure in itself which takes what we know about the Doctor(s) and shakes it up a bit.
