I'm not sure this is worth the effort. It's not as offensive to my ethics like Timewyrm: Genesys, it is however an insult to my senses because this book is truly a slog. It's not as if it lacks structure and it does have perhaps the best depiction of Ace so far but it's a story that stands for nothing.<br><br>Dystopic fiction traditionally makes a political point, it is a political genre as some philosophy, policy or invention is what brings about the hellscape out characters are in. Timewyrm: Apocalypse doesn't take a stance at all. It goes for the most by the numbers scenario and story. <br><br>Once again the Timewyrm is wasted and once again we have another Doctor written about because the author doesn't feel comfortable writing for the Seventh Doctor.<br><br>As others have said, not much reason to read this beyond completionism. It won't last in the memory long.
