The Akashic Noir series is a large collection of 121 city-themed noir anthologies published between 2002 and 2025. It started with San Francisco Noir in 2002, and each volume is named after a different city or region. The geographic range is wide, covering locations from Brooklyn and Chicago to Delhi, Lagos, Baghdad, and Buenos Aires. Some cities have received multiple volumes, including Brooklyn Noir (2004), Brooklyn Noir 2 (2005), and Brooklyn Noir 3 (2008).
Because each book focuses on a different place, the volumes are independent of one another. Readers can pick up whichever city interests them without needing to read any of the others first. The most recent entries are Sacramento Noir and Hamburg Noir, both published in 2025.
