No Time Like the Past

The Chronicles of St. Mary's, Book 5

By: Jodi Taylor

Narrated by: Zara Ramm

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.

This might be the best installment yet...

I came across this series by chance and I am so glad I did! The first book had me so glued to the story I listened to it in one session. Each sequel has had its share of excitement, twists and adventures, but this one had me from hello, all over again.

Zara Ramm's narration has once again brought the story to life perfectly. I was delighted to learn the short stories are now available in audio too.

Well done, Ms. Taylor, as a reader all I can say is... "An honour and a privilege" -- and I can hardly wait for the next one!

A Wonderful Partnership of Author and Reader!

Any additional comments?

I love this whole series! The characters have become friends I don't get to visit nearly as often as I would like to enjoy their cheerfully snarky way of meeting every event - whether good or downright disastrous. In the midst of a very tense moment, I find myself laughing out loud at some comment by Max or one of the others. I must stop reading these books around other people; my friends are beginning to wonder about me

This was the best St Mary's and Max ever!

I have loved this entire series - the adventures and intrigue with great characters! And I would listen to Zara read a phone book! No one else could make these characters come alive like Zara. This book was packed with spot on accents and lively two -three - sometimes five characters switching back and forth in conversation! Amazing and fun - a pleasure to get totally lost in their world!

I recommend this for any and everyone.

Can't wait for the next installment!

Thank you Jodi - please don't stop for a very, very long time - scratch that, ever!!!

Third time through and still dazzling

Witty, exciting and a little bit silly. A great romp and great historical detail too.

Excellent

I have thoroughly enjoyed the entire series and this one was no exception. The descriptions are clear and vivid and the travels full of adventure. I love the humor, esp Max's. Zara is an excellent reader and has Max down to perfection.
