Season one became the most popular show on Netflix within weeks of its May 2022 debut.

An even bigger hit is the Netflix series The Lincoln Lawyer, based on the Mickey Haller legal thrillers. Bosch, the first drama series Amazon produced for its Prime Video streaming service, premiered in 2015 and lasted for seven seasons the second season of another Amazon series, Bosch: Legacy, will be available for streaming this fall. I feel there’s a lot more for me to say about him, and there’s a window of opportunity for me to keep Harry Bosch going for a while.”Ĭonnelly’s fan base has been substantially broadened by adaptations of his work for film and TV, most notably with three streaming series for which the author serves as executive producer. “I thought Bosch was going to die at the end of that book,” Connelly says. And he strongly hinted that more Bosch novels are forthcoming-despite the reveal in 2022’s Desert Star (billed as a Ballard/Bosch novel) that his most enduring character was being treated for bone marrow cancer. Rounding out his bibliography are several standalone novels, short stories, and novellas-and a nonfiction book.Ĭonnelly’s 38th novel, Resurrection Walk, a Mickey Haller legal thriller that also features Bosch, will be published in November.

He has also written three other successful series starring Jack McEvoy, a crime reporter Renée Ballard, another LAPD detective and Mickey Haller, aka the Lincoln Lawyer (Bosch also figures prominently in many of these novels). His best-known series (24 novels and counting) chronicles the indefatigable Bosch throughout his career as an LAPD detective and an investigator. “Something else” indeed: over the past 31 years, Connelly has published 37 novels and sold more than 85 million books.
