DW: The Eight Doctor: The Time War Series 1 – Echoes of War
Hey Guys,
welcome to the second part Echoes of War from The Time War Serie with the Eight Doctor. This story starts in the same point were The Spaceship Thesus ended. The Doctor and the little group survived the crash of their ship and are stranded on a planet.
Can you outrun the war?
The group of people wanted to run from the time war just like the Doctor. But it seems that you can’t outrun it. The Planet were they landed is already one of the victims of the war. There are Time distortions in the jungle and they need to get to the safe zone. I really get why the Time Lords decided to fight this war. But I think like Rupa. Why do they have to rip the universe apart by doing it. They destroying so much and most of it is destroyed because of the Time Lords.
Big surprise
The Daleks were form the beginning one of the biggest enemies the Doctor had. Again and again he stood before them and tried to fight them. The Eight Doctor is one of the most extreme Doctors with his opinion about Daleks. Daleks are bad and never ever can they be good. There is nothing left that could be good in a Dalek. A good Dalek is something he can’t exceped. But here they found a defective Dalek. This Dalek doesn’t rememeber that it is infact a Dalek. He just remembers that he needs to survive. That is the Doctor using and makes sure that Dal helps them get to the safe zone.
I really love this bit. Because the others have problems with it. Because this is a Dalek helping them. Is there really nothing left that can be good in a Dalek?
One Point
There is one thing that I actually dislike on Echoes of War. On this planet are creatures that seems to mean them harm. They took people from the group. But you don’t know what happend to them – not really. For me the part were the Doctor and the others are captured by them and how they communicate and all that is just missing and you get thrown at the end and you think what just happend…
but apart from this the story is good and solid.
