Whoops, seeing this a little late, I’m basically at the end now

Taking a moment’s break to drop another quote that I thought someone on here might appreciate

Mel laughed back at him, just as happy as when they fled from the Bannermen Fleet on a motorbike. ‘Mad Aunty Mel!’ She raised her glass in in a toast.

Thumbed through ** The Magnificent Book of Dinosaurs** by Tom Jackson last night. Very basic data, but beautiful images. Also read Mace Windu: The Twilight Run. It’s a decent story with okay art.

Oh, I forgot I read this series when it came out! I agree with both your points.

Jumped back into The Adventures Before and ahead to the fourth story, The Four Faces of Immortality. I enjoyed this much more than the forst story in this set, however I find it odd that it’s here as a prequel when it’s not? Like, this is about Borusa after he’s been giving Immortality at the end of The Five Doctors. Sure the other characters are recounting events from long before the story, but the framework for that is not prequel territory, it’s a sequel surely? Regardless I enjoyed this, and there’s lot’s of fun references to Gallifreyan lore including Zagreus, the Timewyrm, even the Other, which I find delightful that we can get references to these in a BBC Books release in 2024. That is just lovely x

I finished that book last night. I found it quite good. Did you still finish it, even though “it fell apart”.
What did you think of the rest?

I am always facinated by Ben and Polly in other media, because I always felt that in the tv stories their charactera arent very fleshed out and appear very generic because of that.
