"Lost Souls (Torchwood Radio Dramas #1)" by Joseph Lidster

♦ ♦ ♦

Story: 2 stars. Set directly after season 2. Jack, Gwen and Ianto are still dealing - or not dealing - with Owen and Tosh's deaths when Martha asks for their help. How they feel is shown in their short chats with her, Martha namely hasn't seen them since their friends' funeral. I especially liked her conversation with Jack. I also liked the tight bonds between the three main characters. The story's setting is quite intriguing: the Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland. But the creature itself... I found it slightly lacking, to be honest.

Narration: 5 stars. John Barrowman, Eve Myles, Gareth David-Lloyd and Freema Agyeman, they all do amazing jobs! It's like following a real TW episode with your eyes closed. It's fantastic! John Barrowman has a beautiful voice!

To sum it up: This would have been a pretty average episode of TW but I liked that it showed us how the characters dealt with their tragedy.
