Review, Sep 10 2007
By Elzbieta M. Zawadzki - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Torchwood: Slow Decay (Hardcover)
If you havent watched the show, dont even bother. You have to know the characters to even begin to understand this complex read. Thought provoking and well written with many different storylines that come together at the end. Well worth the purchase.

Delightful, Mar 4 2008
By Bill Mock - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Torchwood: Slow Decay (Hardcover)
We Torchwood fans are a picky lot, so when we say its good its good. Andy Lane has created something very closely resembling a full on Torchwood episode. Thats all we can ask for yeah?It is one of the horror/suspence stories that is just riveting to read. I personally read over one hundred pages in one sitting. Gwen and Rhys are amazing, Jack is just as witty and devil may care as usual, and Ianto makes snide remarks which have almost the same amount of bite as his coffee. I positively loved the characters and while I figured out the plot on page sixty I was still fascinated to see what was happening next.
One reason this is not the best yet published is the writing. It isnt as tight as Another Life. it has a lot of redundant moments and some needlessly long and drawn out paragraphs that say mostly te same thing.
All in all I hope Andy Lane returns to the series as an author.

Let the blood flow...., Mar 5 2008

This review is from: Torchwood: Slow Decay (Hardcover)
I don't wish to give away anything but I will say that there is a lot of blood. Lots of gore. The novel is about alien techonolgy, diets and something eating the Weevils. On top of that Gwen wants to spice up her relationship with Rhys while he wishes to lose some weight. Things get weird, twisted and blood soaked. Faces eaten, eyeballs sucked out and flesh pulled off the bones. I love vampire stories and movies and I felt uneasy when reading some of the scenes in this book. But I can't take away any points because in the end it is STILL a great story.Just don't eat anything while reading.
