Author has written 16 stories for Swallows and Amazons series, and Peter Wimsey. If you should happen to want to read my stories in the order in which they happen to the characters, rather than the order in which I wrote them, this list may help you: The rest of the holidays. (set just after the end of Swallowdale) Just after christmas (set after Secret Water) A provincial lady visits the lake ( Set after Picts and Martyrs and written in a rather different style) Inevitable (post the Picts and the Martyrs, pre- Missee Lee) The Twelth Port (post the Picts and the Martyrs, pre- Missee Lee, the day after Inevitable) Great northern? Why were they not at school? (set just before Great Northern?) Anchor watch (set during Great Northern) Evening dress (a cross-over) (set in September 1937) Baltic adventure (from Easter 1938 to the end of August 1939) Gerry Wimsey falls in love (cross -over) (Summer/ autumn 1940) St. Elisabeth of Hungary (Summer 1944 and March 1945) First place (takes place between the first and second chapter of St. Elisabeth of Hungary) (September 1944) 14th February (takes place between Feb. 1938 and Feb 1950) A long enough time (late march 1949) (cross-over) You might enjoy " A plan" more if you read it after Baltic adventure. People who are familiar only with Arthur Ransome's work of or only with that of Dorothy L. Sayers don't seem to have any difficult with other fandom's characters in the cross-overs. (Or else they're too kind to mention it.) I have tried to keep continuity between the various stories, although sometimes I have used the Swallows and Amazons = 1929 dates and sometimes I have used the Swallowdale = 1931 dates. Mostly I used Swallows and Amazons = 1929, especially in the stories from Evening Dress onwards. | |||||||
