Well I finished listening to this story today, and I’m both confused and a little disappointed. It didn’t seem to go anywhere at all. There was also way too much stuff about love and all that. I’m not too fond of that kind of thing in Doctor Who. I just think it doesn’t work at all. So I’m a bit wary of going on to the next story in the series.

I do like audio books.
Doctor Who: Scherzeo
This is the next story after Zagreus, and is a very strange one indeed. I’m half way through it and I’ve no idea what is going to happen at all or how it will end up. In fact, so far I’m not even very sure about what the story is at the moment.
It is a strange one that’s for sure. I’m sort of looking forward to the next disk, but I’m also slightly concerned that it will end up not being a story at all. I guess I’ll just have to brave it out.
Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency
I’d listened to ‘The Long Dark Teatime of the Soul’ a while back, so just the other day I bought myself ‘Holistic Detective Agency’. I think that’s out of sequence, but I doubt that it matters much. Anyway, I started listening to it today. So far, it makes no sense to me whatsoever. Excellent start. As expected.
I’m still hoping for the BBC to make more Dirk Gently after the pilot episode, but no news so far.
Doctor Who: Zagreus
So I finished listening to this today, all 3 CDs. The cast was amazing. It looked like Big Finish had basically got everyone together who’d been in Doctor Who and got them into a single story (with a few exceptions). But the story wasn’t that good in my opinion. It was ok, and would have worked for a smaller cast, but I think there were almost too many people in Zagreus.
Still, I enjoyed it and it moves me on to listen to the next story.
Listening to Zagreus
This is one hell of a story. The cast is amazing, and the whole thing runs over 3 CDs. Amazing. I’m hoping to finish listening to it today. I’ll let you know what it’s link.
More Who
The first of the new fourth Doctor Who stories has arrived, “Destination Nerva”. I’m looking forward to listening to this one over the weekend at some point, and I hope that the second story won’t be too long behind it either.
Doctor Who: Neverland
Another good story, and nice to hear Lalla Ward again in an 8th Doctor story. I’m looking forward to getting hold of a copy of the next story in this series, called ‘Zagreus’, which sounds like it is going to be fairly important in the whole story arc.
Doctor Who: Time of the Daleks
I really enjoyed this 8th Doctor story, once again with Charlie as the companion. Whilst I always enjoy a good a good Dalek story, this one had an interesting story line and some good twists too.
There wasn’t much in the way of any continuation of the story arc sadly, just a brief mention at the end. But never mind, it was still a great story and that’s what counts.
Doctor Who, Seasons of Fear
I’m slowly getting my collection of 8th Doctor stories towards completion. Seasons of Fear is a good standard story. I like the Charlie character, she’s a good companion in these stories.
Doctor Who: Embrace the darkness
Another good audio book with Paul McGann. Some interesting concepts in this story with the 8th Doctor and Charlie, and a little extra on the overall story arc as well. Nice.
