The hunters become the hunted... Shopping for wedding gifts is enjoyable, unless like Gwen you witness a Weevil massacre in the shopping centre. A trip to the zoo is a great day out, until a date goes tragically wrong and Ianto is badly injured by stolen alien tech. And Halloween is a day of fun and frights, before unspeakable monsters invade the streets of Cardiff and it's no longer a trick or a treat for the terrified population. Torchwood can control small groups of scavengers, but now someone has given large numbers of predators a season ticket to Earth. Jack's investigation is hampered when he finds he's being investigated himself. Owen is convinced that it's just one guy who's toying with them. But will Torchwood find out before it's too late that the game is horribly real, and the deck is stacked against them? Featuring Captain Jack Harkness as played by John Barrowman, with Gwen Cooper, Owen Harper, Toshiko Sato and Ianto Jones as played by Eve Myles, Burn Gorman, Naoki Mori and Gareth David-Lloyd, in the hit science fiction series created by Russell T Davies for BBC Television.… (plus d'informations)
Several of my friends regularly watch/watched Dr Who and Torchwood. I managed to never get into Torchwood when it was on the air. I was familiar with the characters and concepts due to catching bits and pieces of the show or hearing friends discuss some point or other. I'm more of a reader than TV watcher, so I started reading this series as I was interested enough to see what it was all about. At first, I had assumed the novels would just retell the events from the TV show, but these are totally different stories. The books do occasionally touch on stuff that happened in the show as the events they portray sort of happen between episodes. After reading the first 12 novels in this series, I actually went back and watched the whole show, too, since I liked the characters so much. ( )
Not my favorite Torchwood book. Too many gruesome deaths, and the story only gets interesting after that (which is about halfway through the book). ( )
I feel I am about to be excessively harsh about this book. Because it's good, it's solid, there is nothing wrong with it. But it's not as good as SkyPoint and Slow Decay, the other two Torchwood novels that I've read so far. Possibly it's because they were very good indeed. This doesn't have quite the same depth of characterisation as those two (although I loved the bits with Rhys shopping for the wedding), and the plot doesn't grab me quite as much because of that.
But it's still worth reading and enjoyable, just not quite so good as some of the others in the same line. ( )
What do we want from tie-book? Solid characterization, that the characters sound like the original we know and love. Pack Animals does this and is entertaining too. The plot is a little foggy in places but the author doesn't shy away from what makes Torchwood fun and attractive. Namely, Jack being Jack, competent Gwen, amusing Rhys and putting forward Cardiff and making it real and interesting. A good tie in reads like an episode without the special effects that the production couldn't have afforded anyway. This one makes the cut. ( )

'Did you see that sign?" he grumbled. 'They spelled "tiger" wrong.' Ianto tutted. 'It's supposed to be tiegr. God, how long have you been in Cardiff, Jack?' - 'Long enough.' - 'Long enough to have learned a bit of Welsh, that's for sure,' puffed Ianto. Jack pouted. 'I promise to be fluent by the time you introduce me to your family.' - 'Then you hae plenty of time to learn,' muttered Ianto.

Jack knew it was so much easier to hide the truth than have to tell Brigstocke a pack of lies.
