One of the great things about Christie’s novels is that despite the fact that Poirot was in over 30 of them, you can pick any one of them, and have no problem following along. All told, he appeared in 33 novels, 2 plays, and more than 50 short stories published between 19. Yes, Miss Marple is also another of her wonderful detectives, but it’s Poirot who starred in most of Christie’s novels, including both her first to her last. When people think of Agatha Christie novels, they usually think of her famous Belgian detective, Hercule Poirot. The only books that have sold more are the Bible and the works of Shakespeare. To date, Christie has sold more than two billion books, which have been translated into 103 languages. Despite a century passing since Christie began charming the world with her cozy mysteries, her novels are still as popular as ever. This means the first Agatha Christie novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, was released 100 years ago. As hard as it is to believe, we are now firmly two decades into the 21st century.
