pickAnd with that, Series 3 of Dalek Empire concludes. I continue to think Galanar displays some Tenth Doctor vibes at times. His last little speech had a touch of the Fifth about it (from “Earthshock”, where Five describes to the Cyber Leader the value of emotions).
pickMore of a low Pick than some installments of this series, but still good for a quick listen.
Dalek Empire 3.3: The Survivors was my December pick for #12BooksOf2024. It was a really good listen and has me racing through this story arc a little faster than I normally read audiobooks!
pickThis was such a good installment of Dalek Empire! David Tennant does an excellent job as Galanar, and the dramatic cliffhangers continue to pile up. I refreshed my memory of earlier Dalek Empire arcs, and this is building on the story really well.
We've come to Durham for a few days' break, which means that the country has had a typical month's-worth of rain in one day! 🌧️☔ Expecting such weather as our usual lot, at least there's lots of indoor things to do.
Books will be bought on this trip, starting with these two that I got from the supermarket charity table ½ mile from my front door when we stopped for takeaway coffee for the journey 🤦♂️
pickThis installment features David Tennant in a pre-Doctor role, adding a little bit of extra fun to what are very grave proceedings indeed. The stinger line at the very end was perfect, and overall I liked the pacing and was intrigued by what the Daleks are up to. Looking forward to reading on!
pickAnother volume of Dalek Empire begins, this time on the wildlife sanctuary planet of Graxis Major. The commander is a Judi Dench-like character who suffers no fools and takes the mysterious deaths of her crew personally. The Daleks seem to be on the prowl...but they say they're helping end the plague? Hmmm.
(Also of note: David Tennant is in this volume of Dalek Empire. I grinned like a fool when he started speaking :D)
