They're ingenious little stories. The Magic Bullet audio dramas tend to have better production values than their BBV predecessors, but both are rather awe-inspiring in their breadth of scope and sense of characterisation. They even got Gabriel Woolfe back to portray Sutekh the Destroyer amongst the power plays aboard the Ship of a Billion Years.

I've been bouncing back and forth on these... 8th Doc is my Doc, and although I know that the audios aren't directly connected... there is still that connection, thus they interest me... trying to see if I want to take that plunge... even with BF I find it hard to drop $20+ for a hour of audio.

Just listened to the Benny set with him in and I could listen to his voice all day long. |

Just listened to the Benny set with him in and I could listen to his voice all day long. I'd grab the first two stories Coming to Dust and The Ship of a Billion Years to see whether or not the Faction Paradox range appeals. There's a lot there to love and I'd be very surprised if something didn't catch your eye with the Osirian Court and what's going on Earth. I'd even recommend checking to see whether they still have any copies of Kaldor City's first audio release Occam's Razor if their production design appeals for the closest we're likely to get to a Doctor Who/ Blake's 7 crossover .I've been bouncing back and forth on these... 8th Doc is my Doc, and although I know that the audios aren't directly connected... there is still that connection, thus they interest me... trying to see if I want to take that plunge... even with BF I find it hard to drop $20+ for a hour of audio. I'd recommend them purely for what I'd personally consider one of the most authoritative peeks at how exactly a temporally active war is waged. |

I hope I enjoyI think you'll be alright from what you have there. *thumbs up* Body Politic has a... well, not a recap, per se. It recontextualises what happened in the Osirian Court over the past two releases in the context of Gallifreyan politics. You get the gist of what it was about from their perspective, which should tell you all the pertinent points for everything going forward. |

I have found episodes 3 ,4 and 5 excellent great sound design and vocal acting an interesting slant on the Osirans and the veiled Gallifreyans.
definitely getting relistens
