The Akashic Noir series is one of crime fiction’s most ambitious ongoing projects. Each volume gathers original noir stories set in a specific city, written by authors who know the location well. Since San Francisco Noir launched the series in 2002, it has expanded to 121 volumes covering cities on every inhabited continent.
The series has grown from American cities (Brooklyn, Chicago, Miami) to a truly global scope (Lagos, Baghdad, São Paulo, Nairobi). Some cities have generated multiple volumes, and the “Classics” editions revisit locations with historical stories. Richie Narvaez’s involvement spans editing, contributing, and shaping the series’ identity.
