DW: Dark Eyes

So here i am again. I just read that in november they release Dark Eyes 3. That is so amazing that i will talk about Dark Eyes 1. So it is not a book. It is a collection of four audio dramen from ‘big finsh’. Actually i think i will listen to them again and will writte something to every part. Actually i never was a big fan of audio books are things like that. But after Torchwood 3 i must have more of Ianto and i bought all radio plays – maybe i writte about them too.

The reason i startet to listen to Dark Eyes is that i watched the movie. I don’t like it very much. But the eighth Doctor is amazing – Paul McGann ist a perfect Doctor. I loved him from the very beginning. The Problem is we all know there is only this one movie. So i remembered that i have part one of dark eyes on my computer (gift from the doctor who magazine and big finsh).

So, i listen to the first part of dark eyes. It was just perfect. The doctor is looking for hope at the beginning – so i think to understand the character perfectly you should hear the stories who are set before dark eyes. But i didn’t know any of it and understand it without problems, so it is not a must to hear them before.

It is a dark story an the part one is set in the first world war. The Doctor is just how i imagend the eight doctor and Molly is a really strong character, she don’t fall for the doctor and it is really lovely to discover her character. How the setting is implying it is a dark story and don’t have a magic solution to save everyone ( one thing i really dislike at the movie). As much as i know you can see the story as the beginning of the time war – but i don’t know if it is official the start of it.

Just listen to it. It is a really good season with the eighth Doctor.

Last of the Gaderene

Good morning everyone!

The third book of the 50th Anniversary Collection (Past Doctor Adventures) is a really disapointed book.

It featured third Doctor (Jo Pertwee) and Jo Grant. The third doctor is not my doctor, but i love everything about the seasons with him. I love his awesome companions and i love UNIT. So i was really excited to read this book.

At first they are so much person and perspectivs to read… it was like every site was about someone else. I like more perspectiv stories but this was way to much.

But my hope were up because it was old friend of the brig who needed help. But there is not much brig action and the scenes we get it doesn’t feel like the brig. This goes for all the characteres for example Benton and Yates.

But the worst was Jo. Most time in the book she waited for the doctor, who left her out of danger. After the first half of the book Mark Gatiss seems to remember who is writting and that Jo never waits. So we have one little scene with Jo being Jo and then she not boing anything for the rest of the story. She is such a great componian but i really don’t like the same she is in the book.

Have a nice day 🙂
