I've found them to be uneven, but this is one of the better ones.Īmong the elements at play here are serveral characters from both the Dr. Personally, I'm a big fan of the show, which is why I was interested in the novels in the first place. This is the sixth of the novels based on Torchwood, a dark spin off from Doctor Who. It doesn't matter whether the events are true or not, this is exactly what would happen. And Rhys too, but he isn't a team member. Only Ianto is worthy to be anywhere near Jack.
Jack's team is the most incompetent group of petty, insecure and jealous individuals I've seen. I know that some might argue that all that was imaginary or that they were out of character (I disagree), but most of the actions were exactly the things those people would do given enough chance. The events here show exactly the kind of people Jack works with. The events from End of Days are mentioned too. Torchwood fans won't be surprised by Billis Manger's ability to show a future to Jack's team. While people can at least try to live, make it better or whatever they tried to do there, Jack can't can't even enter.
It is not surprising then that there are a lot of ghost stories connected to Tretarri. Every time people try to live there, something drives them away.

But Captain Jack Harkness has never been able to get into the area it makes him physically ill to go near it. Now there is something for Torchwood to investigate. Until Toshiko recognises the sponsor of the street parties: Bilis Manger. There will be street parties and events to show off the newly gentrified neighbourhood: clowns and face-painters for the kids, magicians for the adults - the street entertainers of Cardiff, out in force. Now the Council is renovating the district, and a new company is overseeing the work. No one stays there long, and no one can explain why - something's not quite right there. There's a part of the city that no one much goes to, a collection of rundown old houses and gloomy streets.
