Order of Flandry Books
Flandry is a series of space opera sci-fi novels by American author Poul Anderson. The main character of the series is Dominic Flandry, an Imperial Intelligence Corps field agent from the 31st century. Flandry travels the stars to fight off the various threats to the Terran Empire. Each adventure features a new damsel for Dominic to rescue – kind of like James Bond in space.
The Flandry series began in 1966 with the novel We Claim These Stars, published in 1959. The series lasted 13 novels until 1985’s The Game of Empire. Below is a list of Poul Anderson’s Flandry books in order of when they were originally published:
