I adore Agatha Christie novels and short stories, and all her wonderful characters and plots. Although her author website offers quite a bit of information and there are other places on the Internet to find some data, I haven't found anywhere I can get a complete Agatha Christie reading list that includes short summaries of each book and story that can also be used as a personal reading checklist.

Making sure you get a chance to read all the novels and short stories by the great and prolific Agatha Christie is even more difficult than this quest is for other authors.

Dame Agatha Christie wrote 66 novels, 150 short stories. To add to the complexity of compiling this "Best Reading Order" list is that some of her books and stories were published under different titles in the U.S. and the U.K. (I've made note of these when they occur.)

I hope this list and these story summaries will increase your pleasure in reading all Agatha Christie novels and short stories.
