Brillant - By: the fresh prince, 29 Jun 2008
Took this book on holiday & couldn't put it down, read it in the first day. The book gives a realy good insight into the characters past which was very enlightening & I would definetly recommend it, especiallly for just fourr quid.
S'ok - By: POPPY23, 09 Jun 2008
As much as I love Torchwood & it's related shows, for some reason I am just unable to get into their books, i have tried some of the Doctor Who ones as well, & once again I just can't seem to fully integrate myself into the plot. I understood everything & forced myself to read it so I could give a fully justified opinion. I could have easily put it down, without a second thought, & read something else.

Sadly, just ok for me.
A must-read book - By: Robin Who, 30 Apr 2008
This is an excellent book that you must read. It gets better by the minute! I particularly like the bit about the Vondraxian Orb & how Jack described it. I also liked the men in bowler hats as well.
Read it & you will love it!
I enjoyed it - By: Haddrell, 18 Apr 2008
This book is a bit different than the other Torchwood novels I know because the actual main character is a time traveller callled Michael. Michael is a very intriguing character who became a continuous time traveller by an accident that is linked to Torchwood. From the beginning I was wondering what will become of him & I was kept wondering until the end of the book. I like it that the answer is somewhat open to interpretation. Maybe Jack managed to break the cycle Michael is stuck in but maybe not. But even if he did, I don`t think Jack was able to finallly free Michael. I very much cared for that tragic character & although I would have wished a happy end for him I think the author made the right choice.

What I like is that this book uses the opportunity when exploring the accident & its consequences to reveal more about Torchwood`s past & the history of the main characters. If the author wanted to, he could easily write a sequel. I would welcome it if the does but maybe it is better to leave the reader wondering & wanting more.


Captain Fantastic - By: Binro The Heretic, 02 Apr 2008
Having read alll of the original Torchwood novels published to complement the TV series, I have found them to get better & better. I often think that they would make good television stories & this novel in particular could be a cracker with today's special effects. Michael is an enigma - how does he know the Torchwood team, why does he think he's travelling in time & who are the sinister 'men in bowler hats' who seem to know exactly when & where he's going to be at any given time & who will stop at nothing to track him down..?
David Llewellyn has produced another fast-paced, imaginative & unputdownable read; let's hope there are many more to come.
