Who Is Danielle Steel?

Aside from the fact that she writes wonderful books, Danielle is a fascinating person with an interesting life.

She is the mother of 9 children and splits her time (and writing) between San Francisco and Paris, France. She has founded and runs two foundations. One of them was established to assist the homeless. And the other was established in honor of her late son, the Nick Traina Foundation) which helps organizations involved with mental illness, child abuse, and suicide prevention.

In 2002, Danielle Steel was decorated by the French government as an “Officier” of the distinguished Order of Arts and Letters, and in 2014 she was decorated as a Chevalier (Knight) of the Order of the Legion d’Honneur in Paris.

What Genre Is Danielle Steel Best Known For?

Danielle Steel is best known for her romance novels, most of which are contemporary but with a few historicals thrown in too, especially in her earlier writing years. Her books feature life in general and everything that it can possibly throw at you. The stories are heart-warming, and usually include a little of everything from happiness, to sadness, riches to poverty, goodness and badness, sickness and health, and everything in between.

But her readers depend on finding one thing in every book – a happy ending!

Do You Need To Read Danielle Steel Books in Order of Publication?

Danielle does not write (at least not yet) series of books that require reading in order of publication.

She only writes standalone novels. So, it doesn’t matter what order you read them in.

But, I guess there is a first time for everything, right? I, personally, would love to see a series from Danielle Steel. That would mean that I wouldn’t have to “give up” my characters at the end of the book!

Danielle Steel Books In Order – Summary

Wow, Danielle Steel has got a lot of books out there. And the great thing is, she still seems to be adding multiple newly published books each year. Go, Danielle! I hope this complete list of all the Danielle Steel books in order of publication will help you sort out what you’ve already read and what you need to look for next.

Hi! I don’t see “The Promise” which is the first Danielle Steel novel that I ever read. It was her fourth book and was published in 1978. After that, I was hooked! Just thought I’d let you know! Connie
