Torchwood: The Exodus Code - Audio

[Pindar]

The Barrowmans stab at writing a Torchwood novel is actually pretty good.

I am listening to the 8 hour audio version read by Daniel Pirrie who was in The God Complex.

He is a good reader and does a pretty good job of capturing the characters voices.

I have 5 or 6 Torchwood books and this is by far the best, it's better than most of the tv episodes imo.

Set after Miracle day it involves the Aztec mythos quite heavily.

I haven't finished yet Im only on disk 5 but I recomend it to someone looking for their next audio release.

£6.99 a bargain compared to the price of BF downloads.

I recomended the 2nd Doctor story that came out a few months ago The Wheel of Ice read by David Troughton, I still recomend that to. £7.99 for nearly 10 hours entertainment.

[The Borgified Corpse]

I have a hard time accepting any post-Owen&Tosh Torchwood as legitimate. The main reason why I liked the show was because of the interactions of the ensemble. After they killed off Owen, Tosh, & Ianto, there wasn't much left for me to like. They just never did an adequate job of assembling a new Torchwood ensemble. I despise Rex. Maybe if Esther had survived, I'd be more willing to see what this franchise could do post-Miracle Day.

Rex is in this for about 2 minutes.

It's Jack, Gwen and a whole new team.

The ending veered a bit towards being rubbish, but all in all it was pretty entertaining.
