I really love audiobooks. A good story is the best thing.

Listening to the lost stories

Posted by on in Books and AudiobooksLeave a comment

I’ve been listening to these stories for a few days. They are pretty good. Not all of them, but on the whole they are and I’ve been enjoying how they’ve been brought back and amended for audio.

Of course, as with any set of stories there are some you like and some you don’t like as much, but so far these have been of a particularly high quality and I’ve enjoyed the characters and the stories themselves. I’m looking forward to hearing all of the 6th Doctor lost stories.

The Night of the Triffids

Another excellent production from Big Finish. The Night of the Triffids is a follow on from the original story, set 25 years into the future. As I’d really enjoyed a number of the interpretations of the original story I thought I’d try this follow up. I wasn’t disappointed at all.

As with almost every story I’ve listened to from Big Finish it was excellent, and, in places, very moving too. In some ways I hope that the writer would do a follow up to the follow up. I doubt that will happen, but I can always hope.
