If you are comparing this to the modern Spidey movies (even far back as Maguire trilogy), you will be disappointed.
It's cheesy. It's campy. Peter was annoying AF some times (I keep having a discussion with my mother about her not being a Spidey fan even after all these years. Listening to this one... personally I'm in agreement lol)
It did feel like there was far too much going on with so many different storylines. But it wasn't too much to follow even when I could only listen in bits and pieces. ...more

I started this book years ago, just as something to read while sat in the car with a sleeping baby. Then it got lost off my phone and I didn't think to pick it back up again until a few weeks ago. Mostly again reading it when I was waiting in the car at school pick up.
It was a little dry at first, but all in all quite enjoyable. I will happily continue the series.
The only aspect of the novel I didn't care for was (hidden behind spoilers) (view spoiler)[that they made the baddie asexual or at the very least anti-sexual. They made the fact that they didn't want to have sex the crux of their evilness. (hide spoiler)] That didn't sit well with me.
I didn't like this one quite so much, mostly because the voices were too similar all around, so I was never quite sure who was actually speaking.

But then I'm not that familiar with Peter Davidson era DW.
It was enjoyable, but just to me sounded all too sameish....more
This was the final in the series. Found it quite enjoyable. And a satisfying conclusion. Felt like a 11th Doctor story for sure.

But wow, definitely putting modern issues in a past story line. Because yeah this was a direct commentary on people's overuse of social media and it's subsequent addiction. I'm not saying it wasn't unenjoyable, just saying it was a bit in your face about it.
I did like it though. And the hubby who was a 4th Doctor fan who was listening as well (he was doing other things, and because I couldn't do what I normally do at that time, I put it on and he just had to deal with hearing my audiobook) enjoyed it. ...more

I don't think it grabbed me as much as the first one did, but it was still definitely enjoyable, and I really like how they wove modern occult pop culture into it.
I look forward to the next instalment, which I know they are working on now....more

I have resisted reading his works, because there is a lot of blatant xenophobia and racism in the texts as well as other problematic things.
However, I'm glad I went with this podcast.
It was done in a true crime podcast style, modernized very well.
It was gripping, it was riveting. And I was actually sad that there wasn't more at the end.
The narration was exceedingly well done. I look forward to listening to the next production...more
