About this listen

It’s Christmas again at St Mary's and time for Max’s obligatory illegal jump. On this occasion, however, they’re right up against it.

A loaded gun has been left behind in Ancient Egypt, and it’s up to them to retrieve it before anyone accidentally blows their own head off, thus affecting the timeline for centuries to come.

And as if that’s not enough, someone (Max) has inadvertently poisoned Mr Markham. It’s hot, they’re running out of supplies, they can’t find the gun and it’s all going horribly wrong. Again.

Great short story

I wasn't necessarily drawn back to the story and aching to listen more, but yet I really enjoyed it. I think that I didn't really have time to get to know the characters and appreciate the crisis in the short time it took to tell the story. It always takes a while to really care about the outcome in a given story. But, this story had a fascinating premise and made me want to read larger works about St Mary's and the historians working there. I really think you'll enjoy it as well.

Very Enjoyable Short Story

This was a very enjoyable short story featuring Max and the regular crew. I actually enjoy the author's short stories about St. Mary's as much or maybe more than the full novels. This one is worth the read for St. Mary's fans.

A Christmas story, sweetly written and narrated

I've no fault to find in this gem. And it's also marvelous because it captures and epitomizes everything to be loved in the Chronicles of St Mary’s.

Cute!!

This is a cute short story narrated by Zara Ramm. She is a really wonderful narrator and could listen to her all day! The story is typical St. Mary's craziness. Glad the series isn't over yet!!

Christmas stories

Along with the annual Doctor Who Xmas story, I now have another Xmas tradition to look forward to. Nothing like a little end of the world in our example form or another disaster romp.

"Absolute happiness"

The third book in the series that I've read and although it is a free short story it is by far the best. Just plain fun! The plot is cohesive, the writing is decisive and it's free... you can't get any better than that. Thank you for this very pleasant Christmas gift 😄

A Short Christmas Jump to Ancient Egypt

What made the experience of listening to Ships and Stings and Wedding Rings the most enjoyable?

The performance of Zara Ramm. An excellent fit.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Max is our POV character and naturally is the most relatable.

What does Zara Ramm bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Her performance fits the series mood perfectly

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

The story lends itself toward laughter for the most part. The funniest character in the story is a toss up between Max and Markham.

Any additional comments?

You should be aware that this story to take place just AFTER Book 6 in the series as there is a rather important spoiler mentioned here that may lessen your enjoyment of that book if you listen to this one first.
