Did she write "To Say Nothing of the Dog" before Doomsday?

I'll have to put in a request for that one. It isn't at this library, but it is at one of the other colleges.

No, Doomsday was first. She's written a handful of novels. Her pre-Doomsday work is actually kind of bleak. I'm fond of "Bellwether" but didn't like "Lincoln's Dreams" at all, and the others... let's not talk about them, ok?

After Doomsday she wrote To Say Nothing, and then Passage is her latest. She has also written a lot of short stories. Some are brilliant. Some are icky. Unfortunately, the only short story collection of hers I can recommend wholeheartedly is "Miracle and Other Christmas Stories", which, as the title says, are Christmas stories.

I search the internet every two months or so for info on her next book... all I know is it's to be called "All-Clear", it's about time travel, Mr. Dunworthy, and the Blitz, and she's taking FOREVER to write it. Passage came out in early 2001...
