Order of Guy Gavriel Kay Books

Guy Gavriel Kay is a Canadian author of fantasy novels. His fantasy is often based on actual historical eras, so much so that some of his works are marketed as “historical fantasy” (which Kay himself does not agree with). Kay helped J.R.R. Tolkien‘s son Christopher Tolkien with editing some of his father’s unpublished work, which became an education on how to write and edit.

Guy Gavriel Kay became a published fiction author in 1984 with the standalone novel The Summer Tree. Below is a list of Guy Gavriel Kay’s books in order of when they were originally released:
