Jodi Taylor is the author of the bestselling Chronicles of St Mary’s series, the story of a bunch of disaster-prone historians who investigate major historical events in contemporary time. Do NOT call it time travel!
Born in Bristol and educated in Gloucester (facts both cities vigorously deny), she spent many years with her head somewhere else, much to the dismay of family, teachers and employers, before finally deciding to put all that daydreaming to good use and pick up a pen. She still has no idea what she wants to do when she grows up.
You can keep up with all the latest developments at St Mary’s on her Facebook page.

Any idea if White Silence will be getting re-recorded by Zara Ramm?
Good question! Great answer! fun hearing from you on these videos, Jodi, thank you for doing them :)
You are so welcome!
The lost Vikings is one of my favorite episodes as well. Especially the footy.
Thank you.
I had no idea that was a legend. I would like to find more about it. Thank you Jodi.. 🤩😍📚
You're very welcome.
Wicked uncles? That certainly makes me think differently about Uncle Albert Meiklejohn
I love these little insights. I'm sure that the Chronicles of St Mary's were not intended to be listened to by 60 year old, heavily bearded men, through earbuds whilst running a chainsaw, but they work remarkably well in that role😊
I strongly believe the St. Mary's books should be listened to by everyone! It's so good to hear that all different people enjoy them.
I love that!
I'm so glad to hear this. I always thought "3 dimensional spreadsheet" 😁 Flattening a data stack always seems as though it would be satisfying!
Glad it was helpful!
I'm not sure if you were just brilliant when you named these and how you wrote about them, but this is exactly how I've pictured them! Thanks for the good question and answer. I love having details cleared up. Side note - if you are here and you haven't read Jodi's books other than the St. Mary's seasons series, you really ought to! They are all fantastic. I'll give a shout out to the Elizabeth Cage series as a great one to move into next.
Thank you!
Thank you, Jodi!
You're very welcome!
There's no forgiveness necessary! As an American I was surprised and tickled by the ideas you put down. I absolutely love the little snatches we got here and there when they visit and see Vikings traveling the coastline or rivers in America, or the ideas of how America's history has been rewritten so many times It's dangerous to visit. Thank you for your wonderful imagination and wit, Jodi. It is an absolute joy to read your books, and I am so grateful for them.
Thank you - that made my day.
No speculative fiction writer should ever have to apologize for writing speculative fiction. Seriously - everyone thought Connie Willis wiffed the science fiction elements in the Doomsday Book. Until 2020, when it became a documentary.
Thank you - just gets a bit scary sometimes!
Beautifully prophetic. I love your books.
Thank you so much!
Haha! Nothing to forgive...Brilliant idea, brilliant books.. Thank you for all of your knowledge , humor, and hard work. I'm sure that I'm not the only one who has benefited from the light St Mary's and all the rest provide on difficult days 🌹
Many thanks!
Attending the founding of Magdalen College might make a fun jump - ruclips.net/user/shortsc4C-oMxavKc?si=crJeIbejZyswEnls
Read it and enjoyed it! Looking forwards to the next one
I love your books just the way they are. I have reread all of St Mary's and Time pPolice multiple times and enjoyed them as much or more each time. Thank you for working so hard and giving us s many wonderful stories
So glad you like them! Thank you for your kind comment.
Merry Christmas, Jodi! Loving L,C,M so far. So glad I found your work via DW con this year, a superb addition to my 2024.
Thank you. It's always an honour and a privilege to be part of Discworld.

Love to hear your readings. Thank you ! Love your hair, it looks great, Merry Christmas Jodi 🎄
Thank you! You too!
Thank you Hazel and Jodi!
@@CoriHarhutch Thank you and Happy Reading!
It's a great story. Though my favourite bit is probably Markham and the placenta...
We all love Markham!
I always enjoy hearing you read, so thank you ! Your hair looks great! Take care Jodi ~
Thank you!
I read the Outlander series as they first came out in 1991. Almost 20 years ago I wished for it to be made into a show. I think overall it has been done well, and I still love the characters. I feel similarly about these books! I think they would be so wonderful to watch as a series. I'll keep my fingers crossed it doesn't take 20 years!
The first book is already optioned so maybe, but these things take a great deal of time.
I love this story, Max and Hays crack me up
Thank you - it was fun to write.
My first encounter with the series, so I will always be extremely grateful to have come across this short story ❤
Thank you.
My favourite short story!
Thank you - I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
Liking the sound of this!
Oh,this sounds such fun! I always love the imaginative uses you give to time travel, & this is going to be a belter! Lol 👍
Hope you enjoyed it!
Looking forward to Christmas already. Calvin is going to be treated to a delightful romp with St. Mary’s… again!
Did you enjoy Lights, Camera, Mayhem? I hope so!
@ absolutely! Looking forward to where this takes the books going forward! Happy NY from us all in the states!!
I love this series! Thank you Jodi
Thank you!
I remember reading this the first time. It scared the sh*t out of me and I had to read it again and again. Terrifying and fascinating at the same time. Thank you Jodi.
The next one in the series, Bad Moon is out on May 22nd this year.
It seems such a long time till next May, really looking forward to book 4.
It's the Book of the Month is our Year of Reading - please do join in joditaylor.substack.com/p/a-year-of-reading-with-jodi-taylor
Just to say, these books are available in ePub format from, amongst other places, Google Play Store. I almost didn't purchase an earlier book because the advertising mentioned "exclusively" Kindle...
Loved this book, of course. And I loved that there was finally a Doctor Who reference.
Thank you - so glad you enjoyed it!
Already on Preorder - Don't want to miss this! Lol
Thank you.
Devoured it in 2 days, wanted to eek it out but you’re too good a writer I couldn’t help myself. Proper oh just one more chapter before bed and then realising you’ve been reading that long you can’t see in focus when you look up
Thank you - I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
Don't miss this one!
Great book - Jodi's storytelling has got me hooked. Like other great author's she can spin a story with multiple characters without confusing the reader. The interweaving of characters from other books [I won't add spoilers here] adds a layer to the overall world-building nature of her series. To new-readers it might be nice to "catch-up" with previous books - Jodi has a great website - but it isn't necessary for enjoyment of this book. Also, kudos to her proof-reader, no obvious mistakes that I can find - Although the team responsible for the eBook need a smack on the wrist regarding stray-hyphens; regu-lar, detect-ors, nefari-ous and at least half a dozen others!
Many thanks for your kind comments. I'll get the publishing team to investigate the stray hyphens.
I loved every page, every sentence. Before reading I, I was sort of meh, regarding Smallhope and Pennyroyal. Now, after reading it, I love them as much as I like the St Mary's and Time Police characters. LOVE
Thank you. I had such fun writing it and the response has been fantastic.
Bonjour Je suis française et j’adore les chroniques de sainte Mary. Mais nous n’avons pas de traduction pour les nouvelles des chroniques et les histoires sur la police du temps, et je ne lis malheureusement ps l’anglais… Pensez-vous qu’il y aura une édition en français de ces livres ? J’aimerais tant pouvoir continuer l’aventure avec vous ! Merci merci. Géraldine
I haven't started it yet. I need to finish a book or two from the library so I can savor it and read it then reread it immediately . I know I will love it! Anticipation ! edit.. I also love Commander Hay, and I'm glad to know that we will see more of her.
Hope you enjoy it!
Really looking forward to reading this.
Me, too! Also all the other books I've already pre-ordered, & the 3 that Jodi mentioned at the end! I think Jodi's books are ones that I'll never mind having to wait for, because they're guaranteed to be totally worth the wait! Lol
I hope you enjoy it - I had such fun writing it!
