Torchwood: The Encyclopedia (reference book)
Unlike other fictional universes, the Doctor Who universe is created solely by fiction. To us, this is not a valid source. Information from this source can only be used in "behind the scenes" sections, or on pages about real world topics.
Subject matter
The definitive guide to the hit BBC series including The Children of Earth.

Notes
- Lavishly illustrated with several full page pictures, this encyclopedia follows much the same format as Gary Russell’s previous title Doctor Who: The Encyclopedia which was equally as comprehensive in its coverage of its subject material.
- The Encyclopedia erroneously states that Toshiko Sato called Ben Taylor, when it was Gwen Cooper.
