I don't usually listen to the Big Finish Companion Chronicles range, I like the fully acted ones more than the ones where they narrate what they do, but I was listening to all the stories with the Forge and found this one on the website.

I think it was a good story, time travely and layered and themey and with 7 being very 7 about things. New angles on companions and new information. Proper exciting plot.

But I got distracted a bit before the end by realising one of the characters was played by Amy Pemberton https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amy_Pemberton and my head got full of xover ideas instead of paying attention to the ending properly.

The Companion Chronicles mode of talking to me rather than pulling me along with the up close story kind of leaves more gaps for that. But it also gets you inside characters heads in a way the Adventures cannot, and did good stuff with that.

Good story, very distracted listener.

Pretty okay adventure but it gave me the writer feel where you want to unplait it and use it for parts.
