New Torchwood audios and books
Firstly it is a very strange feeling having a foot tall person kicking you from the inside.
Secondly I've not been on the net as much as usual lately, but having had a trawl on the net today I've found out that there are 3 more Torchwood audio plays coming out and 3 more books.
The play are going to be on radio 4 first and then for sale, the first, called Asylum on the 2 July, the second Golden Age on the 6th August and Deadline on the 3rd September.
Asylum
By Anita Sullivan
The story of a troubled teen runaway called Freda, who is brought to the attention of Torchwood by PC Andy (played by Tom Price).
Golden Age
By James Goss
"A story with a twist" according to producer Kate McAll, 'Golden Age' is set in present day India and features a character called the Duchess.
The DeadLine
By Phil Ford
"A series of mysterious phone calls lead Jack into danger, and result in 'a very emotional moment for Ianto'.
The 3 books, Undertakers Gift, Risk Assessment, and Consequences will be out on the 15th of October.
Undertakers Gift
by Trevor Baxendale
The Hokrala Corp lawyers are back. They’re suing planet Earth for mishandling the twenty-first century, and they won’t tolerate any efforts to repel them. An assassin has been sent to remove Captain Jack Harkness. It’s been a busy week in Cardiff. The Hub’s latest guest is a translucent, amber jelly carrying a lethal electrical charge.
Record numbers of aliens have been coming through the Rift, and Torchwood could do without any more problems. But there are reports of an extraordinary funeral cortège in the night time city, with mysterious pallbearers guarding a rotting cadaver that simply doesn’t want to be buried. Torchwood should be ready for anything - but with Jack the target of an invisible killer, Gwen trapped in a forgotten crypt and Ianto Jones falling desperately ill, could a world ofsuffering by the Undertaker’s gift to planet Earth?
Risk Assessment
by James Goss
‘Are you trying to tell me, Captain Harkness, that the entire staff of Torchwood Cardiff now consists of yourself, a woman in trousers and a tea boy?’
Agnes Haversham is awake, and Jack is worried (and not a little afraid). The Torchwood Assessor is roused from her sleep in only the worst of times - it’s happened just four times in the last 100 years. Can the situation really be so bad?
Someone, somewhere, is fighting a war, and they’re losing badly, the coffins of the dead are coming through the Rift. With thousands of alien bodies floating in the Bristol Channel, it’s down to Torchwood to round them all up before a lethal plague breaks out. And now they’ll have to do it by the book. The 1901 edition.
Consequences
by Joseph Lidster, James Moran, Andrew Cartmel and David Llewellyn
Saving the planet, watching over the Rift, preparing the human race for the twenty-first century… Torchwood has been keeping Cardiff safe since the late 1800s. Small teams of heroes, working 24/7, encountering and containing the alien, the bizarre and the inexplicable.
But Torchwood do not always see the effects of their actions. What links the Rules and Regulations for replacing a Torchwood leader to the destruction of a shopping centre?
How does a witness to an alien’s reprisals against Torchwood become caught up in a night of terror in a university library? And why should Gwen and Ianto’s actions at a local publisher’s have a cost for Torchwood more than half a century earlier?
For Torchwood, the past will always catch up with them. And sometimes the future will catch up with the past… Featuring stories by writers for the hit series created by Russell T Davies for BBC Television, including Joseph Lidster and James Moran, plus Andrew Cartmel and David Llewellyn.
