“Those tiny moments? They really have that much value to you?”
“Oh yeah. They’re what life’s all about.”


^ This exchange from the volume perfectly summarizes why the Ninth Doctor is my favorite. Yeah, he might be sassy and brooding, but ultimately, he sees beauty in even the simplest of things.

^ One of my favorite scenes with him.

He’s got a sharp wit and certain approachability that’s entirely unique. Probably the most down to Earth Doctor, if there even is such a thing.

I was already happy to see Christopher Eccleston back in the precious Big Finish collection, but this volume is even more FANTASTIC. I prefer having three standalone adventures, as opposed to one three-hour story. So, overall, this was an awesome listening experience. Can’t wait for the next one!

Oh this was SO FUN. And really emotional. These always have high production values but the writing is really engaging for these in particular, and the themes they chose were really fitting for the 9th Doctor. Christopher Eccleston sounds like he's having a blast, and the stories really got me invested into short-lived but highly memorable characters.

Of the three stories here all are a blast to listen to but the 3rd story Planet of the End is an all time 9th Doctor story.

So fantastic. Christopher Eccleston so easily slides back into the role like he never left! Brilliantly written stories too.
