Captain Jack Harkness and Sgt Andy Davidson will be joining forces in a Torchwood audiobook out next month.

In Mr Invincible by Mark Morris, we meet Ross Chapman, one of life’s losers, who becomes a crime-busting vigilante in a superhero costume after surviving a shooting.

Something strange is going on, but Ross’ transformation isn’t the only odd thing happening in Cardiff, as the whole of time itself is distorting.

All around the city, people are aging, dying and decomposing in a matter of minutes, while others are reverting back to childhood. Sgt Andy Davidson knows he’s out of his depth, so when Jack Harkness sweeps into the police station, he’s glad of the help that only Torchwood can provide. It’s worse for Jack, the stakes are higher than ever before.

He has seen a vision of Gwen, dead, murdered, by an unknown gunman, and his only hope of saving his best friend lies in him solving the ongoing mystery of Mr Invincible…

Mr Invincible’s read by Tom Price and is due out on 7th June 2012. Pre-order it today!

It starts with a series of unexplained events. Earth tremors across the globe. People being driven insane by their heightened and scrambled senses. And the world is starting to notice – the number one Twitter trend is #TheLoco. Governments and scientists are bewildered and silent. The world needs Torchwood, but there’s not much of Torchwood left. Captain Jack has tracked the problem to its source: a village in Peru, where he’s uncovered evidence of alien involvement. Back in Cardiff, Gwen Cooper has discovered something lurking inside the Torchwood software – something alien and somehow connected to Jack. If the world is to be restored, she has to warn him – but she’s quickly becoming a victim of the madness, too!

Jane Espenson, who contributed as one of the writers for last year’s series of Torchwood, has said that she is “very proud of” the series and what it achieved for US television.

During a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, she touched on the mixed response Miracle Day recieved from the fans as a result of its move over to America. “The Torchwood fans are very passionate,” she said. “I’ve never dealt with a more passionate group of fans. So they weighed in very loudly. I was very proud of what we did.”

She explained: “I thought it turned out amazingly well. I don’t think you can ever beat Children of Earth, which was an absolute masterwork, but I thought we did very well. I thought we did things with that show that aren’t normally seen on American television.”

John Barrowman spoke to MTV Geek during his attendance at Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo this weekend.

He talked about what the future holds for Torchwood, saying he’d “be back at the drop of a hat”. “I love Captain Jack, and me and Eve are like brother and sister on set. We have a great time together,” he said. “Jack’s an iconic figure. He’s a hero. Wherever I am, as long as it works out in my schedule, I will come back. At the end of Miracle Day there’s a cliffhanger, so who knows what will happen?”

He went on to discuss his hopes to be involved in Doctor Who’s 50th anniversary next year, admitting: “It would be a shame if Captain Jack wasn’t there. He was such a big figure and presence within the show itself, and also within Torchwood. But it’s not up to me. It’s just one of those things. I guess you’ll have to sit back and watch this space.”

Would you like to see Torchwood back, and should Jack return for the landmark year…?

Captain Jack Harkness goes on a well deserved holiday in a brand new original Torchwood audiobook out next month.

In Red Skies by Joseph Lidster, our hero journeys to Cotter Paluni’s World, ‘Devil’s World,’ a planet which is surrounded by a deadly scarlet lightning and completely cut off from the rest of the universe. However, Jack’s attempt to take a break from Torchwood backfires, because he soon discovers that the inhabitants of the planet worship the organisation.

Before he can investigate further, he is arrested for murder. Just who is out to get Jack?

Red Skies will be released 3rd May 2012. It is read by John Telfer. Pre-order it today!

In a new interview with Radio Times Eve Myles briefly talks about what she enjoys most about playing the part of Gwen Cooper in Torchwood.

“She’s a full-on action hero, and I get to do all that fun stuff because I do all my own stunts,” she explains. “I also get to do great domestic scenes, because I am a married woman with a baby. So I get to save the world and be the girl next door. So the mix there is wonderful.” She also reveals she’d love to be in Sherlock, describing the series as “really hot”.

Eve has called for a Torchwood movie next year “to draw a line under” the franchise.

Chris Albrecht has discussed the longevity of Torchwood, predicting that it will be “a while” yet before Captain Jack makes a return to our screens.

The CEO of Starz told Multichannel News that the future of the series depends on the availability of its creator. The Starz network formed a co-partnership deal with BBC Worldwide to produce last year’s series of the Doctor Who spin off. He said: “Obviously, we’re in touch with the BBC all the time, but Russell T Davies is so busy.”

Despite this, he revealed that Starz producers “stand by ready for any news”, however he also admitted: “I think it’ll be a while before Russell does come back to Torchwood.”

Eve Myles has said she would like to star in a movie to “draw a line under” the series.

Last month we told you about Army of One, a brand new Torchwood audiobook, and we have now learnt that there’s another one on the way too!

Fallout, which is written by David Llewellyn, is also set after the events of Miracle Day, and is centered on Sgt Andy Davidson, as he sets out to investigate a mysterious double shooting. When Yasmin discovers a jewelled egg in her grandfather’s shed, she is at first unware that it’s in fact a dangerous weapon from another planet.

When she decides to sell it online, the buyer turns out to be a Russian secret agent who is working for the Committee for Extraterrestrial Research, who promptly swipes it, kills her brother, Sayed, and lands her in hospital. Sgt Andy calls in Gwen Cooper for help, who breaks the bad news about the egg and its deadly contents. With no Torchwood, and Gwen in the US, it’s all up to Andy and Yasmin to follow the trail of the Shiva virus…

Fallout is released on 5th April 2012 – you can order your copy on Amazon today!
