Long Story Short (short story collection)

Collected together for the very first time, this unmissable collection showcases seven short stories from the internationally bestselling Chronicles of St Mary''s series, and one special guest tale from somewhere completely different. **Includes the St Mary''s short story When Did You Last See Your Father? and original introductions from the author** From riotous misbehaviour in Victorian London to ingenious feats of scientific invention (powdered water - just add water!), and from a chaotic Nativity play starring a vengeful Angel Gabriel to an illegal expedition to Mars, Jodi Taylor knows how to spin a good yarn. --- Christmas Past The Farrells are together at last for their first St Mary''s Christmas, a time of riotous misbehaviour and the traditional illegal Christmas jump - this time to Victorian London.
