Historical Fiction

About the Historical Fiction shelf

There are 114 series on the Historical Fiction shelf. Together they hold 681 books. The longest is Charlotte and Thomas Pitt by Anne Perry, with 32 books. Because long runs are easy to lose track of, a clear order helps most there.

18 of them still run, while 91 have finished. 1 series already lists a dated next book. Finished series need no catching up, but a running one gains a new book from time to time.

The three biggest are Charlotte and Thomas Pitt (32), Sharpe (26) and I Survived (25). The shortest runs have only 1 book, such as The Wicked Widows. Both kinds get the same checks, because a short series can still hide a tricky order.

Eloisa James writes the most of them, with 10 series. In all, 44 authors are behind these series. Since each name links to an author page, you can follow a writer to their other work.

The oldest series with a known start began in 1951, and the newest began in 2025. Since the data comes from public records, a series with no known start year stays undated.

The soonest dated release here is the next CI Schenke book, from CI Schenke, on 11 March 2027. Since publishers move dates, we recheck announced books weekly. Until a book is out, we label it announced rather than published.

Because a series can sit on more than one shelf, some titles here also appear on neighbouring shelves. Not sure where to begin? Open any series for its reading order, or return to all shelves for a wider view.
