… apocalyptic… plays like modern day John Wyndham… an excellent set. The scripts are top notch, especially the humour and structure and the performance, production and direction is ridiculously strong.’ Alasdair Stuart SFB
‘India Fisher and James Joyce have already created an excellent rapport between the two characters, as their relationship continually fluctuates. One minute tey are united space/time travellers, the next they’ll be bickering – and every so often there’s even a hint of romance thrown in. 9/10’ Blogtor Who
‘… sets off at warp speed and doesn’t touch the brake or lift its foot off the accelerator for its entire duration… subverts traditional Science Fiction tropes and opts instead to pursue a far more intelligent, meticulously planned and detailed approach to story-telling… You need to submerge yourself in the dramatic fury, magnificent characterisation and performances and sublime writing of the adventure…’ Tim Cundle, Mass Movement
‘Nick Briggs knows how to keep his audience waiting and wanting more and this box set most certainly does that… The listener is compelled to go along with this new style that Mr Briggs has freewheeled our way. And it works, it hangs together with no small thanks to the Briggsmeister himself directing and the exemplary performances of the whole cast… intriguing and disturbing.’ Planet Mondas
