The Akashic Noir series is one of the longest-running anthology projects in crime fiction, with 121 volumes published by Akashic Books between 2002 and 2025. Each book focuses on a different city or region, collecting original noir short stories by local authors. The series began with San Francisco Noir in 2002 and has since covered cities on every inhabited continent.
Sandra Cisneros contributed to the series with a story in one of the volumes. The Akashic Noir books are not connected to each other narratively; each is an independent anthology edited by a different guest editor. Popular entries include Chicago Noir, Brooklyn Noir, and Havana Noir.
