Summary
In the always eventful worlds of Jodi Taylor, it's never Christmas without illegal expeditions, riotous misbehaviour and stories you just can't put down . . .
This festive collection takes readers from Frogmorton Farm to Time Police HQ via the Institute of Historical Research at St Mary's in five (and a bit) short stories. A Bumper Bundle of Christmas tales collected together for the very first time.
Includes a Christmas message from the author herself and an exclusive new St Mary's scene, 'A Storm in a Teacup'
Why is Nothing Ever Simple? For once, this Christmas jump is perfectly legal - though that doesn't make it any less dangerous. It's Major Guthrie's last, and to the Battle of Bannockburn, no less.
The Ordeal of the Haunted Room Who wouldn't jump at the chance to experience an authentic Victorian Christmas? Complete with a murderous ghost and one terrifying night in a terrible storm.
The Toast of Time Max and Markham prepare for their very first Christmas away from St Mary's, sure to be full of Peace and Goodwill to all men . . . plus Fabergé eggs, legendary swords and a belligerent ram.
Santa Grint It all begins when the Time Police hold their first Christmas Party. Their most dangerous mission yet.
Joy to the World When things take a unseasonably tricky turn on Frogmorton Farm, only Thomas can step in to save Christmas day . . .

Great Christmas Collection
Although I have heard most of the stories before, it is lovely to have them all together, a great listen for the Christmas break

disappointing
As i have all the stories as stand alone audiobooks i was disappointed that there weren't more new ones. As usual beautifully read and with an introduction but not really worth a credit i feel. All in all it was not a good buy for me

Best Jodi Taylor book so far
This is my 4th Jodi Taylor book and the best so far, very entertaining and just tricky enough to keep you hooked.

nothing new this time
Sorry but this time I'm very disappointed
this is just a book of shorts that have been out on audible either as stand alone books or as part of other anthologies
the first story starts, then 10 or so minutes later starts again with a bit more tacked onto the end.
wish I had realised I would have given this one a miss as I have all of the included stories

Always written with great huour
Every short story a winner. A hook, a moral, a joke or two and a happy ending for each one.

No new stories in this compilation
What a shame. I like the stories but these have already been released as stand-alone books and was very disappointed that this Christmas release was simply a rehashed compilation of them. This is not what I expected from Jodi Taylor and can only presume that her publisher has pushed for it. I feel I have been conned into spending money as I pre-ordered. Sorry Ms Taylor this was a very bad mistake and I for one will not pre-order in future but wait to confirm the content. I have all books available on audible and was looking forward to a new listen!
I listened right through in the hope there would be new content but was totally disappointed. Am checking if I can get a refund.
