'''''{{StoryTitle}}''''' was the sixty-first story in [[Big Finish Productions|Big Finish]]'s monthly range.

It was the first story of the second tetralogy of [[Eighth Doctor]] stories set in the [[Divergent Universe]]. This story is Duff's only contribution to ''[[Doctor Who]]'' fiction as a writer. | |||
The Multihaven | == Publisher's summary == | ||
When the [[Eighth Doctor|Doctor]], [[Charlotte Pollard|Charley]] and [[C'rizz]] find their journey through the [[Interzone]] interrupted by a nightmarish vision, they are surprised to find the [[Kro'ka]] offering the perfect solution... | |||
The [[Multihaven]] — a vast array of [[religion]]s and faiths housed in one harmonious community — appears to offer the perfect sanctuary in which to convalesce. But under the guidance of the charismatic [[Laan Carder]], one religion seems to be gathering disciples at an alarming rate... | |||
With the Doctor and Charley catching glimpses of an old friend and C'rizz on the receiving end of some unorthodox religious practices, their belief, hope and faith are about to be tested to the limit. | With the Doctor and Charley catching glimpses of an old friend and C'rizz on the receiving end of some unorthodox religious practices, their belief, hope and faith are about to be tested to the limit. | ||

== Notes == | |||

* This audio drama was recorded on [[11 June (production)|11]] and [[12 June (production)|12 June]] [[2004 (production)|2004]] at [[the Moat Studios]]. | |||
* An illustrated preview for this story appeared in [[DWM 348]] illustrated by [[Martin Geraghty]]. | |||
* This story was originally released on CD. It is now available as a download only. | |||
== | == Continuity == | ||
*The Doctor and | * The memory of killing [[L'da]] returns to haunt C'rizz. He killed her in the [[Kromon (species)|Kromon]] biosphere as she had been converted into a Kromon queen. The Doctor has come to believe that C'rizz did the right thing. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Creed of the Kromon (audio story)|The Creed of the Kromon]]'') | ||
*C'rizz | * The Doctor tells the Bordinan that he has met many beings who claimed to be or were worshipped as [[god]]s, giving him a tendency to be a "shade blasé" about supposed deities. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Dæmons (TV story)|The Dæmons]]'', ''[[The Time Monster (TV story)|The Time Monster]]'', ''[[Pyramids of Mars (TV story)|Pyramids of Mars]]'', ''[[The Face of Evil (TV story)|The Face of Evil]]'', ''[[The Stones of Blood (TV story)|The Stones of Blood]]'', ''[[Ghost Light (TV story)|Ghost Light]]'') | ||
* The Doctor uses [[Venusian aikido]] on C'rizz and admits that he is out of practice as he injures his hand in the process. ([[TV]]: ''[[Inferno (TV story)|Inferno]]'') He first learned it on a trip to [[Venus]] during his [[Second Doctor|second incarnation]] in the company of [[Jamie McCrimmon]] and [[Zoe Heriot]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Voyage to Venus (audio story)|Voyage to Venus]]'') | |||
* Charley mentions that this is the second time in as many weeks that C'rizz has tried to strangle her. He previously did so while under the influence of the [[Cave creature]] on [[Setarus]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Twilight Kingdom (audio story)|The Twilight Kingdom]]'') | |||
* The phantom TARDIS assumes the form of a [[sedan chair]] ([[TV]]: ''[[An Unearthly Child (TV story)|An Unearthly Child]]'') and a [[Organ (music)|pipe organ]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Attack of the Cybermen (TV story)|Attack of the Cybermen]]'') | |||
* C'rizz once again shows unfamilarity with the concept of [[time]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Creed of the Kromon (audio story)|The Creed of the Kromon]]'') | |||
* The Doctor sees the phantom TARDIS "shatter into a million shards", a fate which would later befall the real TARDIS when it was seemingly destroyed by the [[Dalek]]s on [[Skaro]], ([[TV]]: ''[[The Magician's Apprentice (TV story)|The Magician's Apprentice]]'') only to be reassembled as a result of the [[Hostile Action Displacement System]] utilised by the [[Twelfth Doctor]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Witch's Familiar (TV story)|The Witch's Familiar]]'') | |||
