About this list
598 authors are in the catalogue. Between them they have credits on 11,533 books. Because we file each name by its first letter, the spelling on the author page decides where it sits.
While R. L. Stine has the most credited books here, with 236, Nora Roberts has the most series, with 27. Since each name opens an author page, you can see that writer's series in reading order.
325 of these authors write at least one series. The other 273 are known here for single books, which still have their own pages. In contrast to a plain name list, each page also shows the next announced book when one is known.
The three most credited authors here are R. L. Stine (236), Elisabetta Dami (204) and James Patterson (196). However, these counts include all credited roles, so they can run higher than the number of novels. Each page shows the credit behind the count.
The soonest announced book here is Peculiar Stars by Rebecca Yarros, dated 17 November 2026. Since publishers move dates, we recheck announced books weekly.
Some series change hands, and some writers share a series. When that happens, the page credits each writer by name. Credits come from public bibliographic and publisher records.
Each author page lists their series in reading order, followed by any single books. When a writer has an announced next book, the page says so. Because the list runs A to Z, the letter bar takes you to any other part of the alphabet. If you would rather search, the search box finds any author by name, and the genre shelves group series by theme.
