* ValuesDissonance: In a rather egregiously misjudged scene, when Ace says she'll attack Gilgamesh if he tries anything with her, the Doctor lectures her for being "close-minded". So she should just lie back and let herself be sexually assaulted, apparently.

* SlowPacedBeginning: The first 4 chapters and the prologue are devoted to setting up the main characters, seeding plot points for both this book and the Timewyrm meta-plot, and dealing with an Ace amnesia plot that exists solely to set up the premise of Doctor Who to readers picking up the book unfamiliar with it. Chapter 5 finally has the Doctor and a fully recovered Ace land in Mesopotamia and meet Gilgamesh, and from Chapter 6 onwards (over a fifth of the way into the book) the adventure finally begins.
