Book Series in Order
James Patterson has the most New York Times bestsellers. He has sold more than 300 million books! He was also the first author to sell 1 million e-books. With a plethora of books, somewhere in the ballpark of 350, I know that it’s tough to keep up with all of them. Below is a list of James Patterson’s book series in order. You can find the stand-alone book list here.
I’m a huge fan of this prolific writer. I admire his writing style and devour his books. I try my best (and I do make mistakes) to keep up and share his works with fellow fans and future fans. With that said, I hope you find this list useful. Maybe you will find something that you may have missed or just can’t wait to read.
His many genres include fiction and non-fiction thrillers, mysteries, true crime, and sci-fi as well as, romance, comedy, young adult, and children’s books. There is something for everyone at every age, therefore, James Patterson’s books make a great addition to any library.

Hi Tracy, thank you for this article and I really enjoyed reading it. I have heard of the Middle School series but to be honest I haven’t much time to read it. However, I am putting this on my wish list for my next holiday. ?
Hopefully I will see more post like this. Thank you Tracy

James Patterson is a great author and I first read some of his books when a friend lent me the Womens Murder Club Series which i thoroughly enjoyed.
Since then I have read a few others but would like to try the Alex Cross Series when I get my next holiday. I didn’t realize he had so many titles under his name, but I believe his first book was published in 1976 so he has had time to build up his lustrious career.
Hi buddy,
This article “Book Series in Order” has a lot of good information, I like the prolific writer James Patterson. I’ve read many books, mysteries, true crime, sci-fi and romance. But I haven’t read the Women’s Murder Club or the Middle School Series. Your articles make me want to read these series. Thanks for your knowledge and information, Your friend Yoge.

I don’t read too much, but when I do, I love reading series books. This is very helpful when it comes to series books by James Patterson. I’ve heard of him as an author, but didn’t realize he had so many books. I also will look into the stand alone books and see if those also interest me. Thanks for this useful information.
