About this listen

A Chronicles of St Mary's short story that is sure to entertain. If you love Jasper Fforde or Ben Aaronovitch, you won't be able to resist Jodi Taylor.

It's not easy being a rebel.
So many new skills to assimilate.
Never mind strategic planning, weapons expertise and the like - there's bicycle-stealing, oil-stain removal and boat steering to be mastered first.
And quickly.

It's the time of the Civil Uprisings and two young women set out to make a difference.
Their only problem?
They don't know where they are.
Or where they're going.
Or what to do when they get there.
Other than that ...

Fans of St Mary's will enjoy this glimpse into the past of some of their favourite characters.

Jodi's descriptions are always great but this time I felt like I was really there.

It's not your usually time travelling romp but that's ok because it tells us more about some of our favourite characters.

Also I wasn't crying at the end I had something in my eye.

So make a pot of tea get the chocolate digestives open and enjoy.
