The Toast of Time

De: Jodi Taylor

Narrado por: Zara Ramm

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....

Reseñas de la Crítica

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

Fun Creative Surprising Terrific and Funny as always

Sorry to read some people are upset at/by this being a “short” story; feeling duped, costing the same as a full novel, cheated, yada. Seems they let their anger drive their review.

My feeling is: This story is as superb as all the others. It is performed as outstanding as the others. I enjoyed this story as much as the others. Rock on Jodi and Zara.

PS: maybe consider offering 2 or 3 short stories together for 1 Audible credit, or the price of a full length book. Or maybe consider offering more/all your short stories for free on Audible. It’s just good will & good business. I a l w a y s make concessions for my clients if they feel they are not getting their money’s worth. I wind up more successful and respected for it. Regardless of your marketing departments decisions, I’m a fan of ALL your books. Every single one. Thank you. You make my days better-

Too short

But only because I was enjoying it so much! I wished I’d been warned I was preordering a short story. Since it’s Christmas, I can forgive.

One of my favorites

Zara Ramm does such a great job narrating these books. This just has some fun and funny moments. Including the inclusion of gardening day.

too short

I miss all these characters and need more !! when does the next LONG book come out? anxiously awaiting!!

A perfect St Mary's short story

A great little story with everything Jodi Taylor promised, Toast, adventure, and checking in with all the characters we've grown to love through the years. Like visiting old friends!

Love these short stories

The full length books are awesome, but drama mixed with comedy. The short stories are just a quick, yet exciting, comic interlude.

Humor

I loved the location change and the rules and restrictions of st Mary’s change. I would love them back at st Mary’s again though.

Hilariously funny, as always

I would like to say that I have finished building my time travel machine since the last time I read a Saint Mary's book. But alas no. So I must continue visiting and enjoying myself immensely via audible. love these stories!!

Lovely short story

I was expecting a full novel, so was disappointed by the brevity, but the story, itself, is top notch! Maybe even one of the best dear Max has achieved!
Waiting time for an update, anyone?

Fun for Christmas

Fun story, everyone has a good time. A nice change from the darkness in so many of the later books in this series
