Jodi Taylor is, and always has been, a History nut. Her disinclination to get out of bed for anything after 1485 can only be overcome by massive amounts of chocolate, and sometimes, if it's raining, not even then.She wanted to write a book about Time-Travel that was a little different, and not having a clue how difficult this would make her book to classify, went ahead and slung in elements of History, adventure, comedy, romance, tragedy and anything else she could think of. Her advice to booksellers is to buy huge numbers of her books and just put one on every shelf.The result is the story of St Mary's. And the nutters who work there. In order, The Chronicles of St Mary's are:Just One Damned Thing After AnotherA Symphony of EchoesA Second ChanceA Trail Through TimeNo Time Like the PastWhat Could Possibly Go Wrong?The seventh book 'Lies, Damned Lies and History' will be published early in 2016.The St Mary's short stories are:When A Child is BornRoman HolidayChristmas PresentShips and Stings and Wedding Rings (available for pre-order)The Very First Damned Thing (available for pre-order)Not one to sit still, she has published a contemporary romance, The Nothing Girl, and the adventures of Russell and Jenny continue in the short story, Little Donkey. Her first Regency novel, A Bachelor Establishment was published early in 2015.She is aware that the multi-genre aspect of her books cause real problems for booksellers and cover designers alike and is very, very sorry.

It has become something of a Christmas tradition, a short story from St Mary's, usually involving some bad advised time travel, uhm, investigation of historical events in contemporary time, of course. This one was very cute. It features Max and Matthew as they travel to 19th century London to bring ...

Clever plot, infused with gentle humour that entertained but lacked the personal angst and historical set-pieces that make the series sparkle. The strong point in this tenth episode of St. Mary's is the plot. Max finally puts together a cunning plan to capture her arch-enemy, Ronan and has to leav...

(that's not a rabbit) I thought this was only a 3 book series! "Then Dr. Bairstow, his voice harsh with urgency said, 'Leon. Get out. They're here. RUN!' How am I supposed to resist that last line! Sucked into another one. LOL Off to Amazon to see if I have enough gift card money left.

Thinking carefully is something that happens to other people. I lost my notes to this book, which is annoying me greatly. So I'm going to be a bit more vague than I want to be. I could tell from the first couple of pages that I was going to have a great time with this book -- our narrator is Dr. M...
