Order of Richard Castle Books

Richard Castle is a fictional character who is portrayed by Nathan Fillion on the ABC television series Castle. Despite being a fictional character, Castle is an author of real-life mystery novels as well as several short stories. In his spare time, Castle plays poker with James Patterson, Michael Connelly and Dennis Lehane.

While we don’t have dates of publication for Castle’s fictional novels (and yes, that is fictional, meaning they do not actually exist), we can tell you that the Rick Castle character became a real-world author in 2009 with the release of Heat Wave, starring Nikki Heat – based on fictional NYPD detective Kate Beckett. Below is a list of Rick Castle’s books in order of when they were originally released:
