Publisher's Summary
Jodi Taylor’s best-selling series The Chronicles of St Mary is back with a bang….
St. Mary’s has been rebuilt ,and it’s business as usual for the history department. But first there’s the little matter of a 17th-century ghost that only Mr. Markham can see. Not to mention the minor inconvenience of being trapped in the Great Fire of London…and an unfortunately timed comfort break at Thermopylae, leaving the fate of the Western world hanging in the balance.
Rejoin Max’s madcap journey through time in Jodi Taylor’s fifth interdimensional instalment No Time Like the Past.
Jodi Taylor, International Woman of Mystery, spent some time working undercover for North Yorkshire County Library Service. Heavily disguised as the world's most incompetent facilities manager, she shifted dead dogs, fell out of mobile libraries, and spent far too much time in the gents' toilets.
The idea to rewrite history first came to her while studying history A level at an evening class. Just One Damned Thing After Another is her first novel and was originally self-published as an e-book; it was downloaded by more than 60,000 readers on Amazon.

Zara rules
The story is much as expected and thankfully Zara Ramm delivers another great performance. Truly, I’m listening to these stories for Zara’s performance. One minor quibble: it would be good to correct the mispronunciation of Xerxes, which was unexpectedly annoying.

Loved it
Another laugh out loud adventure. Narration by Zara Ramm's Narration is perfectly timed for exactly the right humour and tension as the situation requires.

Another winner, what else would you expect?
Jodi Taylor never seems to fail in producing delightfully entertaining stories. And Zara Ramm narrates so beautifully. I never hesitate to buy another, and another of her audiobooks.
The combination of humorous writing, intelligent and educated prose, and clear annunciation (with some great local accents, such as Peterson's) keeps the reader avidly following the story. Not being an historian myself, I'll assume that the 'history', where it has not specifically been made to fit the altered world of Saint Marys, is well supported by research.

great narration, slightly underwhelming story
I have loved this series so far, and Zara Ramm does an incredible job with narration in this one as always. I found the story lacking a bit this time unfortunately, although the quality of writing and wit was amazing as per usual. I am excited to get stuck in to the next book!

Good bones of a story but annoying protagonist
The main character is really getting on my nerves by now. Initially her bumbling ineptitude in life threatening situations was charming and amusing but now after many lives have been lost, after so much heart ache which in many cases could have been avoided if she planned things out properly and actually stuck to mission protocols. It's just unrealistic that a professional company would keep putting her in charge. And she meant to have some proper training and experience by now and still doesn't learn. You do get very invested with the characters and the bones of this series are really compelling. But I'm finding it harder and harder to keep listening.
