Doctor Who: The Empty House by Simon Guerrier

2.0



This story was just okay. I didn't find it to be very engaging or exciting. Although it is a Rory and Amy adventure, Rory is 'absent' for most of the story.

The tone is meant to be somewhat like that of a ghost story. The plot, although it came first, felt very reminiscent of the episode Hide from season 7 (New Series).



I personally didn't much care for that episode so perhaps it make sense that I did not enjoy this audio special.

Aside from plot, the story is very rushed, and the aliens feel very under-developed.

The personality of our main characters did not seem to shine through, specifically the Doctor's, I felt like it could have been any number of his previous incarnations.

In my opinion this is not a must-read.
