REVIEW | The Diary of River Song: Friend of the Family
For the past ten series, The Diary of River Song has coasted along with a familiar format: four stories by four writers, loosely linked by a theme or story arc. With its eleventh series, however, the range takes a step into the unknown, giving us one four-hour long story written by Tim Foley. It’s called…
