What can I say, I enjoyed this as much as all the previous books. Such a satisfying read. I have been lucky enough to visit Whitby in the past, but will look at it with new eyes next time I go! If you like quirky, and hate pretentious, if you want characters that aren't perfect bland 25 year olds, these books are for you. I bestow them with the highest honor: ie not being chucked out to the charity shop as soon as they are finished. Paul commented recently on his blog about series of books he tends to collect, and the enjoyment of visiting old friends in the familiar characters, well this is one of my favourite series. Write some more Whitby please Paul, meantime I shall explore your other writings with interest. To far fetched. It's hard to find a series of fiction books that continue to be as good as the first. It's by far harder to find that each get so much better than the previous ones, and this is one of those rare examples. The characters gain more depth than ever, and you get to know, and care for them ever more. I can't wait for the next book! Great fun The Bride That Time Forgot Whitby. Loved this very much, but I'm sure I'm reading them in the wrong order,some things didn't make sense. I would recommend The Bride That Time Forgot to anyone who loves a good story. Chai drinking, vampire hunting, cake scoffing Heroines! Love them. These books need to be read and when you have read them listen to the audio drama. It is fabulous. Simply brilliant.

Never thought two old ladies would be my heroes. But The Bride That Time Forgot are. Brenda and Effie are just fab, and of course, not just your average ladies of a certain age. These books are funny, exciting, inventive and clever, and make me want to get back to Whitby more than ever. Ooh, I rhymed inadvertently! I so hope they'll be having more adventures! Jul 29, Marcus Wilson rated it The Bride That Time Forgot liked it Shelves: fantasy. Story wise this is not my favourite of the Brenda and Effie series, the erstwhile friends tasked with protecting Whitby and the world from the dark forces of the Bitches Maw, but it is still infinitely better than the vast majority of fantasy fiction that is out there at the moment. Plot wise, and possibly because I have been reading a lot of his work lately, I feel that this resembles something that Michael Moorcock could have written. It features characters travelling through time and dimensio Story wise this is not my favourite of the Brenda and Effie series, the erstwhile friends tasked with protecting Whitby and the world from the dark forces of the Bitches Maw, but it is still infinitely better than the vast majority of fantasy fiction that is out there at the moment. It features characters travelling through time and dimensions, the series in general has always had a touch of the multiverse about it, but here it is explicit and central to the plot. If things get a little confusing at times which they do worry not, this is all about the characters, and the depth that Magrs brings to them in this novel is a joy to behold. Plenty of humour and nods to classic horror and fantasy along the way too, I love how this gives a nod to H. Jun 26, Lynsey rated it liked it. Just like the other books in this series I liked it but it didn't blow my mind. This particular tale was pretty out there with alternate worlds and linked in time travel but it is fairly clever how the writer makes it all fit together. I will read more I'm sure. They're enjoyable although silly yarns. Even in Whitby Brenda's life might be going to the bad. Sure there have been dangers before, but they've always found a way to have a punch up and be victorious. The return of Effie's fancy man Alucard might be the turning point. Because Brenda may be in denial about what this once and possibly still evil vampire has done to her best friend. She doesn't want to go accusing Alucard of turning Effie unless she is certain, and she sure doesn't want to be certain. Yet, there is no way of denying tha Even in Whitby Brenda's life might be going to the bad. Yet, there is no way of denying that the vampire population in Whitby is on the rise Brenda sure does have her trouble with men, either they're monsters, like her MIA husband, or monster hunters, like Henry. If vampirism wasn't enough, there is a new bookshop in town, The Spooky Finger, run by an odd lady, Marjorie Staynes, who doesn't quite get that a book club should have a broad range of reading material, and instead focuses on the works of Mrs. But the name Beatrice Mapp sparks something in Brenda's mind Could Qab be real? Before long there are vampire attacks and portals to other places with tears in the very fabric of time, yet the strangest thing that happens is that Brenda willingly, if begrudgingly, takes the help of Mrs. Maybe that is the first sign that it's the end of days? That land before time of garish colors where Jane Fonda from Barbarella wouldn't be incongruous. Qab was interesting, as was the Professor Challenger The Bride That Time Forgot World" vibe. Yet, it felt wrong somehow. Spending so much time The Bride That Time Forgot energy on a place that's not the Whitby I know and love. This really pushed the series, not in a different way, but in a direction that, while logical, I wasn't that keen on embracing. My brother was always the "Land of the Lost" person in the family. He had the bad eighties posters of dinosaurs with mauve skies that would make your eyes water. Also, not to mention my nightmares of dinosaur dioramas from the Milwaukee County Museum, this volume just didn't grab me. We had just another creative medium that creates a vortex, like the previous installment and the film, Get They Inside Me, Satan. Personally, if I had to chose, a film would be a better vortex of evil than a book any day Don't get me wrong, I still enjoyed the book and there where aspects that I loved. Effie finally going The Bride That Time Forgot the bad after The Bride That Time Forgot the hints and intimations, a book club that is really a cult. Because The Bride That Time Forgot, if you think about it, I spent years trying to find a book club, and they're hard to break into, so, really, they are very much like a cult. I give Penny big props for getting on the inside, even if sometimes she started to believe the retoric. Mapp and Bloomsbury! Adored this! There where a few things that where left open ended, which I hope will be handled in the next book, mainly, the Limbosine and what happened to Leena. Finally onto the nit picky. The switch back to first-person narrative was a bit jarring. It's not like this series hasn't utilized it, but since the third book we've been in third-person narration which made sense considering the expanding cast of characters and certain events that made Brenda unable to continue the narration herself. Even more awkward is the fact that the book doesn't stay in first-person, but jumps back to third-person or vice versa, sometimes in the same chapter. The really really long chapters. I like third-person, it works for these books, even if we lose Brenda's voice, her voice is so strong now it can survive the change over from first-person. Jul 24, Michael Thomas rated it liked it. London: Headline The Bride That Time Forgot, ISBN 0 8. The Bride That Time Forgot belongs in a long, honourable tradition. Doom-laden goings on can be engrossing in themselves, but even more so, often, when placed right The Bride That Time Forgot the middle of the mundane. Both worlds can gain immeasurably by the interaction. Elm Street is a perfect harbour for nightmares precisely because of its picket-fenced babysitter schedules. The setting is Whitby, the The Bride That Time Forgot name brimming with connotations of the undead, of Stoker, ghastly shipwreck, swaying coffins. Strands are woven, hares set running. After a certain point, however, a novel has to declare its hand: particular hints have to The Bride That Time Forgot taken up, confidently run with. The reader can also be wrong-footed by inadvertent time-slips. The Boy That Time Forgot - Wikipedia Although it definitely The Bride That Time Forgot Adric's earlier death, it allowed the original to stand, if only as "half of the story". Like Earthshock it was notable for clever secrecy in its marketing. Most The Bride That Time Forgot had no idea that the story involved Adric at all, thanks to his listing in the credits as the "Scorpion King", and the fact that the character was played here by Andrew Sachsnot Matthew Waterhouse. Though Brewster did not appear until the closing minutes of the story, Boy was important to the development of that character by highlighting important similarities with Adric, and for being the adventure in which Brewster was formally invited to join the TARDIS crew. The story was also significant for its heavy use and expansion upon Block Transfer Computationa significant concept from Logopolis and Castrovalva. In a weird jungle valley, the Victorian explorer Rupert Von Thal saves Bloomsbury novelist Beatrice Mapp from a ghastly death in the grip of a monstrous mantis. But this is no Lost World of the dinosaurs. According to their travelling companions, the and Nyssaall four have been transported back to a primitive Earth that should never have existed! Further down the valley is the vast city where the scorpions live.
