Ned Henry is exhausted from his mission to find the bishop's bird stump, a Victorian artifact needed to restore the Coventry Cathedral. He's been time-traveling between the 21st century and the 1940s, and just when he thinks he can take a break, time-traveling colleague Verity Kindle brings back something that upends their plans. With no choice but to go back to the past, Ned and Verity embark on an adventure that takes them through Victorian England and its colorful characters. But as they try to fix the timeline, they realize that the consequences could be disastrous. With Willis' trademark humor and clever plot twists, To Say Nothing of the Dog is a delightful read for sci-fi fans and history buffs alike.
