The Last Saxon King was a book I got from NetGalley in September. I’m not entirely sure why, except it involves time travel. It took me a while to read it as I stopped for several weeks early on. Not

Alley to the Past | #writephoto Flash Fiction
Alley to the Past came out of today’s #writephoto offering from KL Caley at New2Writing.com. I felt like I’d walked down this alley before. After a couple of days, I worked out where it was in my memory, and set
Book Review | This is How You Lose the Time War
This is How You Lose the Time War. It sounds so intriguing, and I’d heard great things of it. And of course, I had to add it to my list for the Spacetime reading challenge! This is How You Lose
Book Reviews | Shadows from the Past Catch-up
Shadows from the Past is the amazingly wonderful time-travelling series for middle grade readers from Wendy Leighton-Porter. And much loved by adults like me! Especially if you like cats, or reluctant heros, or any combination of these things. I caught
Book Review | The Psychology of Time Travel
The Psychology of Time Travel attracted my eye the first time I heard about it. I’m just glad I found a copy of it in the library. It contributes to my SpaceTime Reading Challenge, of course, as well as my
Book Review | The Shadow of the Witchfinder
The Shadow of the Witchfinder – book 15 in Wendy Leighton-Porter’s marvellous Shadows from the Past series. 15, you ask? Well, since the last one I reviewed Wendy has inserted Max’s novellas into the sequence. That means I have not
Book Review | I, Mona Lisa @natashasolomons
I, Mona Lisa – a netgalley book that I couldn’t resist. The Mona Lisa telling her own story – the painting itself? How would that work? Brilliantly, as it turns out! A great addition to my Alphabet Soup Reading Challenge,
Antique | #writephoto Flash Fiction
Antique–a great #writephoto prompt from KL Caley at New2Writing.com, but one that puzzled me. I’ve done a good number of stories with antiques with weird, supernatural or cursed properties. What could I do that was different? This. And it’s just
MG Book Review | Two Magical Series @Malia_Ann #TimeQuintet
Two magical series feature in this month’s review catch-up: The Chase Tinker series and the Time Quintet. Actually, I’m not sure I should speak of magic in relation to the Time Quintet, but fabulous beasts are involved, so I will.
Jemima’s Folly | #writephoto Flash Fiction
Folly is the prompt for today’s #writephoto prompt from KL Caley at New2Writing.com. I saw pretty much straight away that this was the view from the other side of the Arch we had as the prompt a few weeks ago.
The Forgotten Arch | Flash Fiction #writephoto
Arch is the prompt for #writephoto this week. It’s a lovely photo by KL Caley, and gave me several ideas, but only one that persisted. I’m having trouble fitting everything in at present. Editing Zanzibar’s Rings is competing now with
Book Review | The Kingdoms by @Natasha_Pulley
The Kingdoms has a blurb which drew me in, even if some of the reviews might have thrown me out again. Thank you publishers and Netgalley for the chance of an ARC for this book. Although the formatting of the
T is for Time and Tinplate #AtoZChallenge2021
Time and Tinplate is the third of my 2021 Flash Fiction Collections. It’s coming out in June –the 10th to be precise– and features the stories in which time or time travel are of the essence. And it’s my T
Boxing Day Book Review | Thief of Time by Terry Pratchett
Thief of Time is no 26 in the Discworld series, and last of five in a subset called Death. Cheerful! Unlike most of my friends (and probably most Discworld readers), I have a random approach to the order I read
Book Review | Jaydium by Deborah Wheeler
Jaydium makes it two scifi books in a row, at least as far as reviews goes. This was a Storybundle offering from last summer. I don’t think I’ve had a dud one yet from Story bundle, although of course, some
