Amanda Craig crea novelas que diseccionan la sociedad británica contemporánea con un filo satírico conciso y mordaz. Su enfoque de la ficción ha sido comparado con el de gigantes literarios como Anthony Trollope y Charles Dickens. Craig a menudo construye sobre su secuencia de novelas interconectadas al cambiar el enfoque a personajes secundarios de obras anteriores, convirtiéndolos en protagonistas de nuevas narrativas. También demuestra un gran interés en la literatura infantil, sirviendo como crítica en este género para The Times.
