Chronology of Morse books?

[MITCHUMFAN]

Does anyone have a chronology of Colin Dexter's Morse books? I'd like to
read them in order. That's important, don't you think?

I think you both should head on over to K.P. Sin's official Morse website:

The Sub-Orbital - a site for fans of Inspector Morse
http://www.accessus.net/~dr_who/drwho.html

You'll find what you're looking for, and a whole bunch more.

I don't think chronology is that important with Morse. He is Eternal
(or Endeavouring to be anyway).

My versions say:

1976 - Last Seen Wearing

1981 - The Dead of Jericho
1984 - The Riddle of the Third Mile
1987 - The Secret of Annexe 3
1989 - The Wench is Dead

1991 - The Jewel That Was Ours

1993 - The Way Through the Woods

1994 - Daughters of Cain

1995 - Morse's Greatest Mystery

I always thought the Silent World of Nicholas Quinn was the first
version.

I don't have dates for:

Last Bus to Woodstock
Service of All the Dead

or any others I haven't mentioned.

Hope this helps.
