An enjoyable story that played out exactly like an episode of the show would. The characters felt real and I could hear the actors delivering the lines.

This was a slower read than some of the other torchwood books but beautifully haunting at the same time. It was a nice change of pace and I really appreciated taking the time to really feel the characters in this book.

An interesting premise that could have been a great story if tackled by a better writer. Unlike the abysmal [b: The Twilight Streets|2358689|The Twilight Streets (Torchwood, #6)|Gary Russell|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1360096670s/2358689.jpg|2365455], Trace Memory actually adhered fairly well to the standard episode format. There are some good IC moments from Ianto and Jack in particular. The author shouldn't have bothered with the Russian KGB element; it wasn't necessary and it just came across as clumsy. He should have either left it as Torchwood vs aliens or made it Torchwood vs the Russians, or written it much better and made the threeway struggle for capture of Michael believable and interesting. There are strong thematic parallels to Out of Time, To The Last Man and Captain Jack Harkness, but still, not an unpleasant read, all things considered.

A good read but I found my self distracted at times trying to place when and where Micahel was in everyone's respective timelines in relation to the timeline of the show. It felt more like a filler book rather than one that adds to the overall story.
