DW: Project: Lazarus
Hey Guys,
welcome the second part of the Project-Trilogy(Project: Twilight, Project: Destiny). In the 45th adventure of Big Finish Main Range Project: Lazarus Evelyn and the sixth Doctor are going to save Cassi. The first to episode are about this three and the second two episodes are with the sixth Doctor and the seventh Doctor.
According to Professor Harket’s journal the story takes places on the 18th July 2004. It is a little different to say. Because it plays a few years after Project: Twilight which is set 2001. Later Nimrod says it would be five years… what would make 2006.
The second part of the story takes place three years later this would mean 2007.
The Forge is back
The Doctor and Evelyn are going back to heal Cassi from her vampire existence. So she can go back to see her son. Her son is actually Thomas Hector Scofield. The seventh Doctor meets him and travels with him and Ace under the name Hex.
Of course it is not so easy. The Forge already had their claws in Cassi. Also the Forge wants to experiment with the Doctor and his regeneration.
The Doctor working for the Forge
In the second part of Project: Lazarus the seventh Doctor arrives at the Forge and meets the sixth Doctor. Apparently he works for the Forge. You don’t know why or what happened to Evelyn. Even the seventh Doctor doesn’t know what is going on. So he tries to find out and save everyone.
Underlining sadness
This story has again this underlining sadness in it. It is no wonder that Evelyn is so tired. She goes through a lot in this last adventure with the Doctor. Like the last adventures there is a certain darkness to their stories. It breaks my heart.
The second part is harder to describe. The Doctor is on is own and the sadness is not from the beginning in it. But it starts crawling back and in the end the Doctor seems tired like Evelyn was.
Listing or not
Project: Lazarus is not what I excepted. I hoped for a different story for Cassi. So I am a little disappointed in the story. It is not a bad story but I don’t get warm with it. Cassi is such a great character and it is sad that her story only goes over the first two episode and the last are just about the Doctor. So I don’t know. Listen to it or not… it is part of the trilogy and so I need to her it.
