Hackberry Holland Series

Back in September 1971, James Lee Burke published his third novel – Lay Down My Sword A Shield – a story that featured an attorney by the name of Hackberry Holland.

Unusually for a series of books, it would be more than 35 years before the next installmentĀ in the series would be released.

To help ensure that you don’t miss any of the stories featuring this character, we’ve produced below a list of the books in the Hackberry Holland series in chronological order.

The list links to pages for each of the novels where you’ll find the following details:

  • Its release date
  • A description of the book
  • An image of the front cover
  • A link to the novel on Amazon in case you’d like to buy a copy or read reviews of the stories first

If you’d like to see how these fit in with all of his other novels and short stories, we also have a complete list of James Lee Burke books in order.
