About this listen

A Christmas short story from the 'Queen of Time', internationally best-selling author of The Chronicles of St Mary's, Jodi Taylor.

Once again, the Toast of Time falls butter side down. Dr 'Max' Maxwell prepares for her very first Christmas away from St Mary's....

It's that most wonderful time of the year once more. But Max and Markham are a long way from St Mary's. What sort of Christmas will it be without their loved ones?

Settle down with a mince pie and a small sherry and prepare for an unlikely combination of Flying Auctions, Fabergé eggs, duped Time Police officers, the Parish Council, a TWOCed Bentley (no, not that one), legendary swords and a belligerent ram.

Will it be Peace and Goodwill to all men? Well, we all know the answer to that....

Critic Reviews

"Jodi Taylor is quite simply the Queen of Time. Her books are a swashbuckling joyride through History." (C. K. Mcdonnell)

Brilliant!

I love the St Mary's shorts and this is up there with the best of them. The length is perfect, giving room for plot but not for too much angst.
