Reviews

Big fan of Mike Walker's work on Radio.


(4 stars)

A talented and imaginative writer who's work I've enjoyed for many years. This isn't one if his best in my humble opinion, but interesting nonetheless. Definite influences of 'Alien' and 'Prometheus', including the renegade android and the evil 'Company', but the crew are a particularly nasty bunch, and deserve all they get. Worth a listen though, especially if you like your science fiction with dark overtones.

Interesting and entertaining sci-fi


(3.5 stars)

Not bad for a short radio drama, the characters are well played and the plot was decent, a nice quick listen.
