BIBLIOGRAPHY

Here is an as-complete-as-we-know-of listing of all my books (including audiobook versions) and short stories in print--including English, German, Danish, Swedish, Hungarian and Japanese editions. The date given is for the first hardcover publications; remember that U.S. publication also means Canada, and U.K. publication includes Australia and New Zealand. Brackets [ ] mean the edition is coming out in the future. Also, the books listed here are listed in the chronological order in which they take place, as in the Daine books follow the Alanna books on the Tortall timeline and the Kel books follow the Daines; the Circle books are followed by the Circle Opens titles, and so on.
