First sight of Christmas

Posted on 12:57 PM by Unknown
Just this second received my contributor copies of A Day In The Life, which is a nice, chunky volume. Looking forward to reading it.

Even more excitingly, there's an add in the back for something else:

SHORT TRIPS: THE HISTORY OF CHRISTMAS
A short story collection edited by
SIMON GUERRIER

ISBN 1-84435-149-1

Christmas is a time for many things. For family and old acquaintances. For giving, for receiving, for feasts and celebration. For huddling round the warmth of the fire, sheltered from the dark and the cold outside.

And the monsters.

It's also the busiest time of year for the mysterious Doctor, whether he's caught up in the violence of ancient Rome, taking Leonardo da Vinci on a day trip to the stars, or popping in on the very first Christmas on the Moon.

Spend Christmas with the Doctor. If you dare.

Featuring stories by Marc Platt, Jonathan Clements, Eddie Robson, Joseph Lidster and many more!
