Say I create a book database (content type), which has an entity reference field to a separate author database (content type). I can now link all books to a specific record for their respective authors. Great.
But is there a way to automatically show all books linking in to the author record on the page for the author?

You can do that with Views, for example. Not sure how familiar you are with that core module.
Create a block with a contextual filter on the "author" node ID, and based on that relationship get the book node IDs. Put that block in the layout in use on "author" pages.
