Red Skies is a post-Miracle Torchwood story released by AudioGo in May 2012. Written by Joseph Lidster and read by John Telfer. Telfer is an unusual choice of narrator as he is someone who was never in TV Torchwood but he delivers his narration of Red Skies superbly. In Red Skies, Jack takes a holiday on the planet Cotter Paluni’s World. In somewhat of a curious note I just looked up on TARDIS Wiki and this planet got a mention on television in Doctor Who: The Sontaran Stratagem by the Tenth Doctor as one of the places that he would like to take Donna to. While Cotter Paluni’s World has never been seen on television I somehow do not get the sense that the Doctor took Donna to that world in an off-screen adventure otherwise notwithstanding any timey-wimey situations he would have dealt with the situation that Jack encountered in Red Skies. In Cotter Paluni’s World, Jack to his very surprise encounters a populace that praises a god called….Torchwood. Quite intriguing listening to Jack finding out why the god is called Torchwood and the visions of the deaths of people he knew. The revelation of who this god Torchwood is was finely done in this quite incredible enjoyable story not to mention for a Torchwood story that has a non-Earth setting something the TV series did not get to do (so far).
