It's not very often an author has me grinning like an idiot but a new one has.  To the short list of Terry Pratchett, Robert Galbraith and Lois McMaster Bujold, I now add Jodi Taylor.

Seriously, try a sample chapter from the first of the 4, soon to be 5 books in the series The Chronicles of St Mary's.  The first one is called Just one dammned thing after another.  It's accessible, fun, has swearing, sex, a quirky institution and chunks of history.

Yes the time travel is slghtly glossed over and there are some holes in the plots but they are immense fun.

Edited to add link to Google Play where a free sample can be found: https://play.google.com/store/books/details/Jodi_Taylor_Just_One_Damned_Thing_After_Another?id=twKkBQAAQBAJ&hl=en_GB ;

Read book #1, bought book #2 which is on my to-read-when-too-tired-for-hard-work sub-pile. It's pretty good for self-published fic.
