An All Too Magical Christmas

Tobias Sturt

When a magician (second class) chooses to do Christmas duty in the City of London, it's because he's hoping for a nice, quiet , seasonal time; not for ancient magic to break loose, and the enchanted city to be filled with ghosts, monsters, wonder and danger. Not on his watch. Not when he's going to have to deal with it all on his own. That would be an all too magical Christmas. An all too magical Christmas is a seasonal adventure story of magic, mayhem and mystery, told in 24 instalments. Written by Tobias Sturt and read aloud by Jon Millington. Duration - 3h 21m. Author - Tobias Sturt. Narrator - Jon Millington. Published Date - Wednesday, 14 January 2026. Copyright - © 2020 Toby Sturt ©.
