Overall a very good listen - I found the storyline generally interesting and engaging, although there were times where I got a bit lost. I also don’t know whether this was due to the narration or not, but I found the doctor’s character to almost be the wrong doctor - he felt more like the 4th rather than the 11th, which just felt a bit off. He wasn’t sporadic and changeable enough to be the 11th doctor, and just generally felt a bit off. Other than that, the storyline was intriguing - it was very interesting to see your opinion of what was happening evolve as it went on - it was more like a whodunnit than a sci-fi novel in that way. But a good read, although I’m not sure I’d read it again.
