What a fun, charming, hilarious origin story. I want so much more, I wish the prequel were a full book!

Not sure what happened in this short story. There was time travel to a Napoleon battle and a big UK schoolhouse being built. I listened to the audiobook so maybe I missed some things.

I wanted to like this, it seemed like an interesting story, but it made no sense without the context of the rest of the series. And not even in a “don’t you want to learn more?” Kind of way, just in a nonsensical “what even is going on?” Way.

The author does it again. The story is spilled onto the page without you even knowing it. So many ah hah moments!!

For fans of the other Chronicles of St Mary's books, a short prequel to how it all started. You'd need to have read at least the first book in the series for this to make much sense.
