About this listen

Miggea – a world on the very edge of reality. The cusp between this universe and the next. And the venue for the grand finals of the competition to win the fabled Arrow of Law. The Doctor and Amy have joined the Terraphiles – a group obsessed with Earth’s history, and dedicated to re-enacting ancient sporting events. They are determined to win the Arrow. But just getting to Miggea proves tricky. Reality is collapsing, ships are disappearing, and Captain Cornelius and his crew of pirates are looking for easy pickings. Even when they arrive, the Doctor and Amy’s troubles won’t be over. They must find out who is so desperate to get the Arrow of Law that they will kill for it. And uncover the traitor on their own team. And win the contest fair and square. And, of course, they need to save the universe from total destruction... Featuring the Doctor and Amy as played by Matt Smith and Karen Gillan in the hit series from BBC Television. Adventure Science Fiction Fiction

There were times when this story well and truely lost me. The story had too many crucial characters, it tried to be too complex and had too much unnecessary detail. I found myself wandering off at times and was not bothered to rewind to find out what I missed (which didn't seem to matter).
I also struggled with the DW characters... I think the personalities of the characters did not match with Matt Smith's Doctor and Amy Pond. Perhaps Peter Davies' Doctor and a companion would've fitted better...?!
As a DW fan, I did like this book, I enjoyed the new worlds and adventures I was taken on, I just didn't love it and probably wouldn't listen to it again.

It did not grab my full attention.
