    Laugh! At the remarkably small price for which it CAN BE YOURS!!!

    Reel! At my sudden lack of modesty.

    It's true. This book will change your life! And if you'll let it, the book can also change your pants. It's more than enough reason to buy a copy.

    You jammy sod, you got the only decent cover they've ever wrapped around one of these things! It's actually brilliant!

    As has been said, best cover of any of the Short Trips.

    And a big for Steve. Well done again.

    I'd not heard anything about this book until now...

    Oh OK, I had and I'm really looking forward to reading it. I hear it'll be available very soon, which is nice. Apparently some of the authors are really nice too and might well be along at the November meet, which'd be good. We can all get signed copies!

    Authors APART from Rob??? Even I'm a bit tempted by this book, and I don't tend to go out of my way to read fiction much.

    [I'm going terribly lazy and often waiting for the audio book to come out rather than READ something myself].

    Although I may be a little biased, considering, I thought this was a splendid Short Trips collection. There was only one story I really didn't like (not Time Shear by the way!). All the others were of a really high standard and there was a good mix of serious, sad, funny, mad and odd stories. Something for everyone, aside from Hartnell fans!

    Highly recommended!

    Congrats!

    I would also love to comment on the stunning cover! It reminds me of those Ladybird books I grew up with!
    One Day, I shall come back, Yes, I shall come back,
    Until them, there must be no regrets, no tears, no anxieties, Just go forward in all your beliefs,
    and prove to me that I am not mistaken in mine!

    Not that i've read too many of the books in this series, but i'd say it was my favourite so far.
