Featuring 3rd Doctor and The Delgardo Master
After a collision in the vortex, the Master is trapped in his TARDIS. Luckily, the Doctor has come to save him. Unluckily, the Doctor’s TARDIS has vanished. With the ship collapsing around them, can these arch-enemies put their rivalry aside long enough to survive?
Regards

Loved this. A brilliant insight into the Master, his psyche and his sheer determination to survive. It's a great prologue to what he becomes in The Deadly Assassin and in turn the things he does to avoid death in The Keeper of Traken, Survival, The TV Movie, many Big Finish audios, etc.
This was Culshaw's best outing as the Delgado Master and I would actually welcome a set with him in the vein of The War Master.

Very enjoyable, but not quite to my taste if that makes sense. Really well written, and Culshaw is fantastic as Delgado's Master, but I just didn't click with it.

I've said it before and I'll say it again and again and again until I force it to manifest into being through sheer persistence: Big Finish really needs to expand the "Master" set into a full range, a,terns ring between the various "lower profile" incarnations of the Master. Culshaw's, Beevers', Macqueen's, Parker's, Robert's, Simm's, Gatiss', and so on. All of them. |

Just a stellar performance by Culshaw in this. I think this is my favorite thing he has ever done for Big Finish. I will repeat shallacatop's post, this was a striking look into the Master's mind. I can't say that I understood it all, and a second listen is surely needed, but it's a terrific story. |

A terrific listen pitting the Delgado Master against the methods we know he’ll turn to in the future. Culshaw’s Delgado and Pertwee are perfectly passable but far from dead on, but frankly the material here is good enough I can live with that.

I loved the voice acting in this. I enjoy audio stories where Pertwee & Delgado interact. I would relisten to this just for that dynamic. Recommended for those who like Terror of the Master.
