Torchwood The Men Who Sold The World

By: Guy Adams

Narrated by: John Telfer

John Telfer reads this exciting Torchwood adventure - a prequel to Torchwood: Miracle Day.

When Oscar Lupe appears 20,000 feet up in the air, his body is frozen solid and free-falling to earth. It shatters on impact. Soon after, a CIA Special Activities Division squad goes rogue with a cargo marked ‘Torchwood’ that they’ve been escorting from somewhere called Cardiff.

The Agency puts Rex Matheson on the case. As the strange deaths pile up, Rex realises there must be experimental tech out there, but someone is obstructing him at every turn. Rex is the CIA’s golden boy - but has he met his match in the evasive Mr Wynter…?

Based on the hit series created by Russell T. Davies, The Men who Sold the World is a prequel to Torchwood: Miracle Day, starring John Barrowman and Eve Myles as Jack Harkness and Gwen Cooper, with Mekhi Phifer as Rex Matheson.

NB: Contain strong language, sexual references and graphic scenes of violence

What did you love best about Torchwood: The Men Who Sold the World?

I like the character of Mr. winter. I would hope to see him in future torchwood books.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Torchwood: The Men Who Sold the World?

The way chapter 19? kept repeating with the use of the time travel gun. It was a clever way to make the reader part of the story. As if we were repeating time.

What about John Telfer???s performance did you like?

The performance was pretty good. But not my favorite of the torchwood books.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes but I had to do it in two.
