Nekromanteia is a Big Finish Productions audio drama based on the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who.

Plot

The Fifth Doctor, Peri and Erimem attempt to discover the secret of the domain of the dead.

Cast

Reception

Nekromanteia was met with almost universally negative reviews. Particular criticism was directed at the depiction of Harlon's attempted rape of Peri, and him facing no consequences for this act in the course of the story.[1][2]

Peter Davison was reportedly so unhappy with the story that he requested that Austen Atkinson never write for his Doctor again.[3]
