Order of Georgette Heyer Books
Georgette Heyer (1902-1974) was a British author of historical romance and detective fiction. She is best known for the creation of the Regency romance subgenre. Heyer is often compared to Jane Austen (whose novels are set in similar time periods), although Austen wrote her romances in contemporary times, whereas Heyer would have to detail the settings.
Georgette had her first novel published in 1921, which was titled The Black Moth. She is a prolific author, having at least one novel published each year for most of her career. Below is a list of Georgette Heyer’s books in order of when they were originally published:

If You Like Georgette Heyer Books, You’ll Love…

LOVE the Georgette Heyer Regency era books!
She INVENTED the genre, which is now so overused, but she was first….she studied the diaries and old letters and whatever else she could find to learn how the people TALKED, what they wore, what they ate, how they acted, what the “rules” of the society they lived in were…….NONE of her books are an excuse to run a soft porn scene! Nor do any of her books have 20th century/ 21st century people merely “dressed up” as 18th-19th century people, but speaking and acting like we do…..they are REAL!
Next to the great Jane Austen, she presents the Regency era as it really was!
