The Book of the Snowstorm – Readthrough/Review Part 5
Framing Story (Scenes 12)
David Tennant? And the TARDIS Data Core?
Only one scene this time so not much review but Coloth is still fun.
Trauma and Tinsel
Poor Miara, I’m glad they got through to her in the end. (Also fascinating condition, effectively perpetual regular forced regeneration but obviously not actually that). Dionus is a character I’m familiar with by name, because of BBV’s Dionus’s War audios, but this is my first actual experience with them as a character. They seem nice. Also saw references to ‘V-Time’ and ‘Ulysses’ in there too. But the main thing is the piece was sweet.
Love & War
Not to be confused with the VNA Love and War or the BF adaptation Love and War of the VNA Love and War.
Ok so this is literally an immediately pre-War Cult of Skaro Dalek story. How did you get away with this? Explain. Literally had the Genesis Ark and void ship in it and everything.
Also the citations, direct citations to real books (Including one to my work which I was not expecting).
Mathematical Bureau lore and FASA War Chief lore aside, this weighs in on literally everything from ‘which homeworld is the main one’ (Romana IIIs is the ‘First’ but War King’s is the ‘Prime’) to ‘When did the Doctor and River Song marry?’ (With this story implying Dionus and Susit got married after Dionus resurrected Susit using some of his regeneration cycle).
Short review session this time, but I got cut off, just under half way through the book now.
