Publisher's summary

Here's a question for you. What's the most exciting thing ever found in a fire bucket?

And don't say 'fire' because you'll be wrong.

Suppose - just suppose - it was the technology to take a pod to Mars.

Yeah, now we're talking!

Every Christmas, for reasons which seem good at the time - especially after an eggnog or two - Max and the others leap into the nearest pod and indulge in their illegal Christmas jump. It's a tradition. This year, however, just to be different, they find themselves part of someone else's illegal Christmas jump. It's time to don a spacesuit and bring your own urine!

That was certainly unexpected. But amazingly good.

That was so funny. I really enjoyed it. But I prefer the history. Actually I don't care what Jodi Taylor writes. It is all great. There is always humor, excitement and i usually learn something. Just keep writing. Thank you very much. The narration is always great.

Not Her Best but Still Pretty Good

The story seemed rushed and came off as a little weak. Not her best effort but still entertaining.

Jodi Taylor has done it again!

I was nervous going into a St Mary's book without Max in the center of it all, but this was brilliant. JT easily my favorite author delivers another brilliantly funny, thoughtful book to being. It was over too soon...but the Christmad stories always are ❤🎄

Not Really Sure What to Make of It

I have to admit...I half listened to this one whilst doing house chores and such. Overall, okay but for me to give it a true review, I think I'd need to listen to it once more.

OhMy! My Face Hurts from Laughter!

This along with all the other St. Mary’s books is absolutely wonderful! It’s full of both actual history and altered history. But the dialog is so spot on hilarious that my face hurts from laughter.

I happened to be listening to this while out shopping. That may not have been the best idea since I was of course wearing earbuds. The people out shopping that day kept giving me the strangest looks as I continued to burst out laughing as they passed by! I tried to apologize and show them my earbuds and tell them it was an audiobook but they did not care to hear that. So... oh well. I enjoyed it!!!
