In the late 1990s he turned to nonfiction and fiction with the Catholic Church as his subject. He has written two Catholic-interest novels, ''Conclave'' and ''Council'', During the news coverage of Pope John Paul II's death and the papal conclave that followed, Tobin appeared frequently on television and radio programs as an expert on the Catholic Church, and upon the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI and subsequent election of Pope Francis, he was sought after as a commentator on the church and the papacy.
