Order of John Grisham Books

John Grisham is among the most renowned fiction writers in history. The ex-lawyer is well-known for his legal thrillers, but he has also penned several excellent books that do not take place in a courtroom. A remarkable aspect of Grisham's works is that, aside from his recent Theodore Boone series, he has never reused characters. Each novel he has authored, except for his young adult titles, stands alone without any connections to his earlier works.

John Grisham became a published novelist in 1989 with the novel A Time to Kill. Below is a list of John Grisham's books in order of when they were originally released:
