5DA-MR127-Castle Of Fear-Alan Barnes

Castle of Fear was a lot of fun, very Monty Pythonesque. But even though it was a predominantly humorous story, the stakes were also high, with several people dying. I like the rhymes, & my favorite parts in this story is Nyssa being super smart & also being a noble lady.

I could easily imagine this story being on tv. The scenes and descriptions were very vivid.

The only thing that slightly takes me out of the story, is that the villains sound like Daleks. (But at least I could understand what they were saying, unlike the Ice Warriors).

I’m happy to have finally listened to this, having bought it last year. Onwards to The Eternal Summer, the next part in the Stockbridge trilogy.
