  • Summary

  • Merry and magical stories that take Christmas seriously (or as seriously as it should be taken, which is both not at all and entirely too much). 24 episodes of a new Christmas story for adults read aloud every December - an audiobook advent calendar.

    There are already many different stories. There’s the unlikely steampunk Adventure Calendar of Mr Timothy Hope, the story of the little girl Lydia, her family and friends and the Apartment Store, the madcap murder mystery of The Deadvent Calendar, the report of an harassed government wizard on An All Too Magical Christmas, the strange experiences of Mr Benedict Nail among The Ghosts of Christmas Presents.

    The Adventure Calendar of Mr Timothy Hope - December 1st
    Dec 1 2017
    Timothy Hope, desperate to impress the beautiful but disdainful Lady Misericordia, stows away on Lord Daunt's expedition to the North Pole, and finds himself caught up in an adventure of high seas, deep crevasses, slavering wolves, reindeer sleigh rides and much, much more, with only his wits and inventiveness to keep him and his friends alive.The Adventure Calendar of Mr Timothy Hope is a seasonal story of unlikely accidents and hair-raising escapes told in 24 letters sent home by Timothy Hope as he journeys in the Arctic Circle. Featuring characters such as the unhinged big-game hunter Baronet Oxshott, the scatter-brained genius Professor Cumulus and the always inventive Timothy Hope, the story is a frequently silly, always exciting sleigh ride into the heart of Christmas itself.Written by Tobias Sturt and read by John Millington.Illustration by Amanda Gray.Music: Bedrich Smetana - Three Dances from The Bartered Bride - US Army Band, from musopen.com Get bonus content on Patreon
